Supreme Court is set to rule on Trump’s challenge to birthright citizenship

What to know:

• The Supreme Court on Tuesday will rule on the constitutionality of President Donald Trump’s order on birthright citizenship declaring that children born to parents who are in the United States illegally or temporarily are not American citizens. The decision comes on the final day of a Supreme Court term that has centered on Trump’s expansive claims of presidential power — and largely ruled in his favor.
• The court on Monday handed Trump a major win by upholding his firings of independent federal agency heads at will, with the exception of Federal Reserve governor Lisa Cook, who will retain her job while she fights the president’s effort to fire her over allegations of mortgage fraud.
• In cases from West Virginia and Idaho, the court will decide whether to uphold laws in roughly half the states that prohibit transgender girls and women from playing on their public school and college sports. Also remaining is a case on the limits of political party spending in support of candidates for Congress and the president.
