Description
Supreme Court to Debate Trumps Bid to End Birthright Citizenship: President Trump to Attend
The Supreme Court will hear arguments this Wednesday regarding an executive order from 2019 that aims to end birthright citizenship for children born to undocumented parents or temporary visitors. The order challenges the interpretation of the Fourteenth Amendment, which grants citizenship to anyone born on U.S. soil and under its laws. Supporters argue that the amendment was intended for freed slaves, not for anchoring citizenship through illegal entries or short stays. Lower courts have already blocked the policy, but the Supreme Court will decide by summers end whether to uphold or overturn the block. The outcome could significantly reshape who is considered American from birth and set the stage for major changes in immigration policy for generations.
