AJIL Unbound is pleased to publish an Agora on the Supreme Court's recent decision in Zivotofsky v. Kerry (Zivotofsky II). 1 This highly anticipated separation-of-powers decision addresses the validity of congressional action alleged to intrude upon the President's exclusive power to recognize foreign sovereigns. The petitioner in Zivotofsky was born in Jerusalem and wished to have his birthplace designated on his passport as "Israel." Because the Executive branch does not recognize any country's sovereignty over Jerusalem, the birthplace of U.S. citizens born in Jerusalem has been designated on their passports as "Jerusalem." In 2002, Congress passed a statute entitling persons born in Jerusalem to have "Israel" designated in their passports as their place of birth. At issue in the case was the validity of this statute
