Supreme Court rejects Trump's bid to restrict birthright citizenship

The U.S. Supreme Court has upheld birthright citizenship, rejecting President Donald Trump's executive order that sought to deny automatic U.S. citizenship to children born in the United States to undocumented immigrants and temporary foreign residents. In a 6-3 ruling, the court held that the 14th Amendment, together with longstanding legal precedent and federal law, guarantees citizenship to nearly everyone born on U.S. soil, with Chief Justice John Roberts writing that the Constitution's promise extends to "every free-born person in this land." The ruling leaves intact lower court decisions blocking the order, which could have affected more than 250,000 children born in the U.S. each year, including those born to undocumented immigrants, temporary visa holders, students, and green card applicants. All children, regardless of immigration status, have the right to a free K-12 public education in the United States, as affirmed in the 1982 Plyler v. Doe ruling. Limiting birthright citizenship could complicate access to education and public services; it could also reduce access to Medicaid-funded school services, make college less affordable, and increase fear among immigrant families, leading to lower school attendance and enrollment.

Florida districts celebrate strong grades

Florida’s latest A-to-F school grades showed broad academic gains, with 76% of public schools earning A or B grades, up from 71%, while D and F schools declined. Broward County, Palm Beach County and Miami-Dade County all retained A grades, with Broward and Palm Beach doing so for the third consecutive year and Miami-Dade continuing its strong record since 2018, outside the pandemic years. Broward had no D or F schools for a second straight year, while Miami-Dade and Palm Beach each reported isolated low-performing schools. Leon County earned a B, narrowly missing an A, but highlighted major improvements at Sealey Elementary and Fairview Middle. Jefferson and Franklin County Schools improved to B grades, while Wakulla, Liberty and Lafayette maintained A grades. Alachua County also retained a B, with 16 A-rated schools, though Rawlings Elementary fell to an F. Duval County kept its districtwide A, with 98% of traditional schools earning A, B or C grades. Escambia County earned its first A grade, helped by gains in math and major school-level improvements. Lake County secured another A rating, Sumter County maintained its A, and Palm Beach reported stronger reading, math, science and acceleration results. Education Commissioner Anastasios Kamoutsas said Florida’s results show that “high expectations, expanded school choice and strong accountability produce real results for students.”
