Supreme Court to Decide on Trump’s Birthright Citizenship Order
The US Supreme Court has agreed to review President Donald Trump’s executive order aiming to restrict birthright citizenship, a move that could fundamentally alter the interpretation of the Fourteenth Amendment. According to France24, the order seeks to deny citizenship to children born on US soil to parents who are in the country illegally or temporarily, a policy previously blocked by lower courts. USA Today notes that this case joins other major Trump policies under review, with the court’s decision expected to set a significant precedent on immigration rights. The Guardian adds that the executive order, signed at the start of Trump’s second term, has faced immediate legal challenges and is being closely watched for its societal and constitutional impacts.
