Supreme Court Upholds Birthright Citizenship | Annapolis News
Description
The Supreme Court just struck down Trump’s controversial executive order that sought to end birthright citizenship, ruling 6-3 that it’s unconstitutional. This landmark decision reaffirms the long-standing principle that anyone born on U.S. soil is automatically a citizen, regardless of their parents’ immigration status — a rule rooted in the 14th Amendment since 1868. Trump had claimed the policy would curb illegal immigration and “birth tourism,” but the Court rejected those arguments, emphasizing the constitutional foundation of birthright citizenship. The ruling comes amid a broader wave of immigration policy shifts, including recent decisions allowing asylum system overhauls and country-specific expulsions — signaling a major turning point in how the U.S. approaches immigration.
