Donald Trump Signals What’s Next After Supreme Court Ruling on Nationwide Injunctions [WATCH]

President Donald Trump on Friday welcomed a key decision from the United States Supreme Court limiting the power of lower federal courts to issue nationwide injunctions, announcing that his administration will now move forward on a range of executive policies that had been previously blocked.

The announcement came during a press conference held by President Trump in the White House briefing room, where he outlined the implications of the 6–3 decision delivered earlier in the day.

The ruling, which sided with the Trump administration, found that federal district courts do not have the authority to issue universal injunctions that block federal policy nationwide.

“Thanks to this decision, we can now promptly file to proceed with numerous policies that have been wrongly enjoined on a nationwide basis,” Trump told reporters.

“Some of the cases we’re talking about would be ending birthright citizenship, which now comes to the fore.”

The Supreme Court ruling is expected to impact several key policies from the Trump administration that were previously halted by federal judges. Among the actions now slated to move forward are:

• Termination of birthright citizenship for children born in the U.S. to illegal immigrants
• Defunding of sanctuary cities
• Suspension of refugee resettlement programs
• Freezing of certain federal funding deemed unnecessary
• Prohibition of federal tax dollars being used to pay for transgender surgeries

President Trump highlighted the historical context of birthright citizenship, stating that the 14th Amendment was “meant for the babies of slaves,” not individuals entering the country to secure citizenship for their children.

“It was the same date, the exact same date [as] the end of the Civil War. It was meant for the babies of slaves,” Trump said.

“And it’s so clean and so obvious, but this lets us go there and finally win that case, because hundreds of thousands of people are pouring into our country under birthright citizenship, and it wasn’t meant for that reason.”

The president originally signed an executive order shortly after taking office that sought to end the practice of granting automatic citizenship to children born in the U.S. to non-citizens.

That executive order was immediately challenged in court and blocked by federal judges using nationwide injunctions—now limited under the new Supreme Court ruling.

During the press conference, Trump also cited “numerous other priorities of the American people” that were stalled under previous judicial orders and said they will now be reevaluated for action in light of the Court’s decision.

The ruling is viewed as a significant limitation on the ability of lower federal courts to set national policy from the bench.

Trump characterized it as a “monumental victory” for the Constitution, separation of powers, and the rule of law.

Friday’s decision marks a key legal turning point for the Trump administration, which has long criticized the use of nationwide injunctions by judges in select jurisdictions to halt federal action.

The Department of Justice is expected to begin the process of reinstating several blocked executive policies in the coming days.

Additional filings to resume implementation of previously halted orders are likely to follow.

The White House has not yet provided a full list of policies that will be reactivated, but the president’s remarks signaled that immigration enforcement, fiscal reforms, and federal healthcare funding will be among the administration’s top legal priorities moving forward.
