https://www.washingtonpost.com/immi...-birthright-citizenship-class-action-blocked/ excerpt: "A federal judge in New Hampshire on Thursday placed a new nationwide block on President Donald Trump’s efforts to end birthright citizenship, a decision that came two weeks after the U.S. Supreme Court opened a path for the administration to begin enforcing the order."
https://www.washingtonpost.com/immi...-birthright-citizenship-class-action-blocked/ excerpt: "The high court, in a 6-3 decision, did not rule on whether Trump’s birthright order is constitutionally valid. The justices kept Trump’s ban on hold for at least 30 days and sent a set of cases back to the lower courts to determine the practical implications of their ruling. They left open a path for challengers to try to continue to block the president’s policy nationwide through class-action lawsuits but also raised the possibility that birthright citizenship could be cut off in the 28 states that have not joined lawsuits against it."

Funding the government is subject to the filibuster, requiring 60 votes, but a separate —and rarely used — process allows for canceling some approved spending with a simple majority vote. The rescissions package would slash $8.3 billion in foreign aid and $1.1 billion from the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, which funds PBS and NPR. It flows from efforts by the Department of Government Efficiency, or DOGE, to find savings."
