US President Donald Trump said on Wednesday that he would ask the Supreme Court to rehear a case challenging his executive order curtailing birthright citizenship, a long-shot bid to reverse the court’s rejection of one of his signature policies.
The court last month rejected Trump’s attempt to restrict birthright citizenship in the US, ruling that his directive violated language in the US Constitution’s 14th Amendment that confers citizenship to those born in the United States who are “subject to the jurisdiction thereof”.
The US Supreme Court rarely grants requests to rehear cases and has not done so after issuing a ruling in an argued case in decades.
The Republican president called the decision, which was written by conservative Chief Justice John Roberts, a “miscarriage of justice”.
“AMERICAN CITIZENSHIP IS NOT FOR SALE! In fact, that is a crime, and therefore, the Supreme Court’s ruling is wrong,” Trump said on social media.
“I will be asking for a Rehearing by the United States Supreme Court, IMMEDIATELY.”
