The U.S. Supreme Court on Friday limited the ability of federal judges to provide nationwide relief from policies they concluded will likely be found unlawful in a case challenging the legality of the Trump administration’s order on birthright citizenship.

Colorado is among the 22 states who sued the administration over the executive order.

Here is what Coloradans are saying about the 6-3 decision in Trump v. CASA:

Attorney General Phil Weiser: The “decision to limit courts from issuing nationwide injunctions will spread chaos and create an unworkable patchwork of conflicting decisions in the judicial system. It is critical, for example, to have uniformity when it comes to citizenship — whether a child is a citizen should not depend on the state where they’re born.”

Gov. Jared Polis: “This is a sad day. President Trump’s unlawful executive order and this decision weakens our ability to preserve well-established constitutional rights, creating a patchwork where rights might be upheld in some states and rolled back in others. Colorado will continue fighting to defend our constitution no matter who is in Washington, and these constant attacks on our Constitutional rights will not go unnoticed.” 

Former Attorney General John Suthers: “I think the time had come for the Supreme Court to put a rein on the proliferation of national injunctions. It had just become too common and in a lot of contexts where it really didn’t make a lot of sense for one district court judge to shut down something nationwide. So, I wasn’t the least bit surprised there were six votes anxious to change that. … I would not suggest in any way, shape or form that this gives any enlightenment as to how the court’s going to view the merits (of the administration’s birthright citizenship order). My personal prediction is that they’re going to uphold the injunctions that make their way to the court.” 

Frederick R. Yarger, former Colorado solicitor general: “This ruling will increase the importance and prominence of state attorneys general in challenging presidential actions. State AGs, when they band together, can represent large swaths of the country in lawsuits against the President. In the right cases, that means they can constrain the President over those entire areas. That’s fundamentally different from the relief that individual private litigants can obtain under the limitations of this new ruling.”
