(Washington D.C.) Several Immigration groups filed suit in the District of Columbia to enjoin enforcement of President Blackadder's first Executive Order, which states in part: "It is the policy of the government of the United States that citizenship at birth is automatically conferred only only such persons as are born to individuals who are subject to the jurisdiction of the United States as a result of their being legally present within the same at that time." The groups argue that the President does not have the authority to issue such an order under the Constitution and that only an Amendment to the Constitution can change U.S. Policy in this area. There has been no official comment from the White House regarding the lawsuit. A spokesman for the National Council of La Raza stated that "We are confident that this unconstitutional edict from an oppressive and out of control ego maniac will be swiftly overturned in the courts."
