During this broadcast, Dr. Kaye is joined by Krish O’Mara Vignarajah, President and CEO of Global Refuge, and Billy Murphy, attorney with Murphy Falcon Murphy, to discuss the Supreme Court’s decision to limit nationwide injunctions — a ruling that could reshape the future of legal challenges against federal policies, including former President Trump’s efforts to end birthright citizenship.
The conversations reflected on the historical significance of the 1898 Wong Kim Ark case, which secured birthright citizenship in the United States.
Guests raised concerns about the potential for a fragmented legal system, where rights could vary by jurisdiction, and explored the broader consequences for immigrant families and American democracy. The discussion also emphasized the connections between social justice, racial solidarity, and the importance of collective resistance and strategic advocacy in the face of shifting legal and political landscapes.
