New Jersey Democratic Attorney General Matt Platkin said Tuesday he’s leading a group of 18 states, the District of Columbia and the city of San Francisco, in filing a lawsuit blocking Trump’s order that would end birthright citizenship. Four other states filed a separate suit in federal court later in the day, bringing that number to 22 states.
