DNC Statement on Trump v. Barbara

In response to the Supreme Court’s ruling in Trump v. Barbara, DNC Chair Ken Martin released the following statement:

“Since his first days in office, Donald Trump has sought to recycle racist, debunked legal arguments to strip away the constitutional rights of American citizens born to immigrant parents. Today, he failed. 

“With Trump v. Barbara, the Supreme Court emphatically rejected his anti-immigrant crusade and reaffirmed what has been enshrined in the clear language of the 14th Amendment: If you are born in the United States, you are a citizen. Democrats will continue to defend the rights of every American.”
