There’s not much the hyperpartisan majority on the Supreme Court won’t do for Trump, Sandeep.
But even the most corrupt Court in the land refuses to budge on overturning the 14th Amendment — no matter how hard Trump pushes them to.
That’s why Trump made another set of unconstitutional executive orders targeting birthright citizenship and so-called “birth tourism.”
Last year, on the first day of his second term, Trump issued a similar order to restrict birthright citizenship. It was struck down by the Supreme Court just a few months later.
His latest executive orders will meet the same fate. But even still, this is the exact kind of rhetoric that puts a target on the backs of immigrant families like mine.
Trump and his MAGA allies have made it clear that regardless of whether you were born in this country or not, if your name is hard to pronounce, if you look different or pray differently, you are not fully American in their eyes. They are using the machinery of the federal government to make that point, loudly and cruelly, every single day.
This is exactly why I started Equal Opportunity Now.
We need leaders in office who will stand up for immigrant families, for the 14th Amendment, and for every community that Trump has decided to make an enemy.
Those leaders exist. They are running for office right now. They need our support.
Will you chip in $25 or $50 today to help Equal Opportunity Now support the leaders who won't back down, and who will fight to protect our constitutional freedoms every day?
