AG Davenport led a multistate coalition defending birthright citizenship at the U.S. Supreme Court, standing up to President Trump’s illegal effort to rewrite the Constitution and overturn federal law.
“New Jersey continues to lead the way in defending our birthright citizens and the rule of law from attacks coming out of Washington, D.C. Instead of focusing on the cost of living or public safety, the President is unlawfully attempting to strip countless American babies of their citizenship, violating the Constitution, federal statutes, and over a century of Supreme Court precedent. The States are fighting back.” – AG Davenport
