    Iirc, the way it’ll work out is if you’re born in one of the 22 blue states with an order, you get to be a citizen. If you’re born in a red state, though, you’re fucked. It’s a very strange issue to patchwork, though, even stranger than abortion.

      The Supreme Court hasn’t actually decided if it’s illegal or not. This is just about injunctions to stop Trumps EO.

      That being said, it’s also a federal issue so you couldn’t get a patchwork like abortion.

      Unless I’m missing something?

        The news was talking about the patchwork, and yeah, you’d think it’s a federal issue but the injunctions can only apply where the lawsuits were, hence the 22 states that sued. At least for now.

        At least that’s my understanding. It likely can’t stay in this limbo for long, anyway. Will this court be corrupt enough to say it’s constitutional when it’s clearly not? I really hope not.
