Birthright citizenship is 'protected' in Colorado despite Supreme Court ruling, AG says
The right of birthright citizenship will continue in Colorado — even as a Supreme Court ruling on Friday could allow President Donald Trump to at least temporarily end the practice in other states amid an ongoing legal battle, according to Colorado Attorney General Phil Weiser.
“You're protected. And if people are born here in Colorado, they still will benefit from birthright citizenship,” Weiser said in an interview with Colorado Matters.
With the court’s 6-3 decision delivered by Justice Amy Coney Barrett, the U.S. may soon be allowed to carry out an order from President Donald Trump to end the practice of birthright citizenship in much of the country — but not in Colorado and certain other states — for children born after Feb. 19.
Legal experts stressed that the question of birthright citizenship is far from settled, and will likely end up before the Supreme Court again in the future.
