The Supreme Court on Tuesday upheld birthright citizenship, keeping in place a legal principle — that almost everyone born on U.S. soil is a citizen — that has defined who is considered American for more than 150 years. The Supreme Court also ruled that states can bar transgender athletes from participating in women’s sports, saying such bans do not violate the Constitution’s guarantee of equal protection.
On its last day of issuing decisions for this term, the Supreme Court also agreed to lift limits on how much political parties can spend in cooperation with candidates.
