Episode Details

The Supreme Court is set to hear arguments this week on birthright citizenship, challenging the practice established by the Fourteenth Amendment in 1868 to grant citizenship to all individuals born on U.S. soil. The Trump administration has targeted this practice, aiming to deny citizenship to children of undocumented immigrants. The concept of jus soli, or right of the soil, has been adopted by various countries throughout history, but many have since shifted to jus sanguinis, or citizenship by bloodline. Public opinion on the matter is divided, with strong support for citizenship for children of U.S.-born parents or legal immigrants, but less support for those with undocumented parents. The decision could have significant implications for immigration debates and the definition of American citizenship.
