US Supreme Court Upholds Birthright Citizenship, Rejects Trump Order
The US Supreme Court has upheld the broad interpretation of birthright citizenship, rejecting former President Donald Trump's executive order that sought to deny citizenship to children born in the United States to parents residing illegally or temporarily. The justices based their ruling on a longstanding understanding of the 14th Amendment, ratified after the Civil War, as well as more recent federal laws. According to this interpretation, anyone born on US soil, with limited exceptions, is automatically a US citizen. This decision reinforces the constitutional guarantee of citizenship by birth and invalidates attempts to restrict it through executive action.
