Supreme Court strikes down Trump’s order ending birthright citizenship
The Supreme Court struck down President Donald Trump’s executive order aiming to end birthright citizenship, ruling it incompatible with the 14th Amendment. Chief Justice John Roberts emphasized that children born to parents unlawfully or temporarily present in the U.S. satisfy the Citizenship Clause. Justice Samuel Alito dissented, arguing the 14th Amendment only grants citizenship to children whose allegiance is solely to the U.S.
