Zivotofsky v Kerry concerns disputed borders, territorial and constitutional. Is Jerusalem part of Israel? May Congress force the President to issue passports that are premised on the conviction that Jerusalem is within Israel? The Court disclaimed any desire to opine on the first question. On the second, it declared that the Constitution grants the President an exclusive power to recognize other nations, governments, and their territorial claims. Based on its conclusion that the presidency had exclusive authority over recognition, the Court held that Congress could not command the President to issue documents that intimated that Jerusalem was part of Israel.

齐沃托夫斯基与三权分立

Zivotofsky v Kerry 案涉及有争议的边界、领土和宪法。耶路撒冷是以色列的一部分吗？国会是否可以强迫总统签发以耶路撒冷在以色列境内为前提的护照？法院拒绝就第一个问题发表意见。第二，它宣布宪法授予总统承认其他国家、政府及其领土要求的专属权力。基于总统对承认拥有专属权力的结论，法院认为国会不能命令总统发布暗示耶路撒冷是以色列一部分的文件。
