The case stemmed from President Donald Trump's bid to end birthright citizenship for some children, which has been frozen by multiple lower courts. With Friday's decision, that order can now begin to go ahead.
The six conservative members of the Supreme Court sided with the president, finding that injunctions can only apply to those who have sued.
Trump appointed three of the justices in his first term.
The liberal justices, meanwhile, said the ruling went too far in lessening courts' powers and strengthening the president's.
