On April 1, 2026, from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m., the Asian American Bar Association of Chicago (AABA Chicago) in collaboration with the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois, will host a listening party and reception for the live‑streamed Supreme Court oral argument in the birthright citizenship case, Trump v. Barbara, No. 25-365.
This event offers attendees a unique opportunity to experience and engage with an oral argument in real time addressing whether Executive Order No. 14,160 complies with the Citizenship Clause and 8 U.S.C. § 1401(a). The Executive Order provides that children born to temporary visitors or undocumented parents are not U.S. citizens by birth and directs federal agencies not to issue or accept citizenship documentation for such children born more than 30 days after the Order’s effective date.
The event will take place in the Ceremonial Courtroom of the Everett M. Dirksen U.S. Courthouse, 219 S. Dearborn Street, 25th Floor. Light refreshments will be provided courtesy of AABA Chicago. Space is limited, and advance registration is required for this complimentary event. Click here to register.
