What happened
Multiple states filed lawsuits challenging policies implemented by the Trump administration. In one instance, a federal judge dismissed the Trump administration’s lawsuit against Michigan regarding the state’s square-footage requirements for egg-laying hens, finding no standing. Separately, the Supreme Court struck down an executive order banning birthright citizenship, and federal judges blocked the administration’s attempt to reshape the Public Service Loan Forgiveness program in Massachusetts and Washington, D.C.
Why it matters
The rulings demonstrate judicial limits on the scope of federal executive authority. The administration had previously alleged that Michigan’s egg sales ban contributed to a cost-of-living crisis.
