The Supreme Court's birthright citizenship ruling isn't the end of the story—it's just the beginning. Here's what the decision means, what happens next, and why the constitutional debate is far from settled.

🇺🇸 On the eve of the 250th anniversary of American independence (and just one day after the Supreme Court’s birthright citizenship ruling in Trump v. Barbara) I’m proud to share the release of @FAIRImmigration 's latest Investigative Note, The Citizens’ Republic: Reclaiming the Founders' Vision of America at 250 (which I co-authored with @ImmigrationHD).

ICE officers aren't the villains they're made out to be.

[Federation for American Immigration Reform @FAIRImmigration]

Our Founders believed citizenship and immigration should strengthen the nation.

FAIR's new Investigative Note traces that vision through American history, examines the Supreme Court's Trump v. Barbara ruling, and proposes a roadmap for restoring a selective, assimilation-focused immigration system through prompt congressional action.

Supreme Court Gets Birthright Citizenship Wrong

"...because of that mistake birthright citizenship for children of illegal aliens will continue to be a ballooning negative consequence of the failure to enforce our immigration laws." - @FAIRImmigration

SCOTUS Makes ‘Temporary’ Great Again

In restoring the executive’s authority to terminate Temporary Protected Status for foreign nationals, the Court recognizes that protections can end when the emergencies that initiated them end.

The Supreme Court Makes ‘Temporary’ Great Again

"Long-term American interests require that we stop treating every grant of relief as an irreversible entitlement that creates new claims for family members and the eventual granting of citizenship."

Today’s court decision on birthright citizenship reinforces the critical need for strong border security. A secure border is essential to upholding the rule of law and ensuring our immigration system functions as intended.

🏛️ Supreme Court Gets Birthright Citizenship Wrong

Decision shows heightened importance of stopping illegal immigration

“The Court got the Constitution wrong, and because of that mistake birthright citizenship for children of illegal aliens will continue to be a ballooning negative consequence of the failure to enforce our immigration laws," said Dale L. Wilcox, executive director and general counsel of FAIR.

"But that very fact makes it all the more urgent to step up enforcement to the maximum possible extent and end illegal immigration. At FAIR, we will redouble our efforts to put an end to illegal migration, and thus cancel this and all its other negative consequences.”

The Supreme Court got this one wrong. But today's decision only reinforces the need to stop illegal immigration and secure our borders. The fight for meaningful immigration reform continues.

[USCIS @USCIS]

Before Ellis Island opened and nearly 100 years after the Declaration of Independence was signed, the Supreme Court made immigration regulation federal responsibility in 1875. As immigration increased, Congress enacted national laws and established federal authorities to enforce them.

The Immigration Act of 1891 was a major milestone, giving the federal government direct control over the inspection and processing of those seeking entry, overseen by the Office of the Superintendent of Immigration (later the Bureau of Immigration).

As the United States approaches its 250th anniversary on July 4, 2026, USCIS is highlighting the evolution of America’s lawful immigration system, from the early federal Immigration Service, through the Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS), to the creation of @DHSgov and USCIS. USCIS is proud to uphold this legacy by administering a lawful immigration system based on accountability, integrity, and service to the American people.

When one side gives while the other only takes, it's no longer a partnership—it's a parasitic relationship.

🚨Today, the Supreme Court held 5-4 in Watson v. RNC that federal law does not prevent states from counting absentee ballots received after Election Day. This ruling underscores the urgent need for Congress to pass election-integrity legislation, as we at @FAIRImmigration have been urging. 🧵 1/5

🏆 Victory! Supreme Court Allows TPS Terminations

Today, the U.S. Supreme Court reversed lower court orders blocking the Trump Administration’s termination of Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for citizens of Haiti and Syria. FAIR had filed a brief in the Court urging that result.
