Clarence Thomas shreds ruling that ‘devalues’ citizenship in Supreme Court dissent

Justice Clarence Thomas criticized the Supreme Court's decision to overturn a Trump-era birthright citizenship rule, arguing the majority's interpretation of the 14th Amendment was misleading and diminished the value of citizenship. The 5-4 ruling upheld that the amendment grants citizenship to all children born in the U.S., regardless of their parents' immigration status. Thomas's dissent highlights the ongoing ideological divide within the court over fundamental constitutional principles. This decision carries significant implications for immigration policy and the legal status of millions of people born on American soil.
