Trump signs an executive order to end birthright citizenship, targeting children of parents on temporary visas.
New Jersey’s Athorney General argues 14thAmendment Cannot be ignored.
White House press Secretary Harrison Fields criticises leftists, urging them to align with the president’s will.
On January 20, 2025, President Donald Trump signed an executive order titled "Protecting the Meaning and Value of American Citizenship," aiming to end birthright citizenship for children born in the United States to non-citizen parents.
This order challenges the long-standing interpretation of the 14th Amendment, which has traditionally granted citizenship to nearly all individuals born on U.S. soil.
The executive order specifies that individuals born in the U.S. will no longer be granted automatic citizenship if, at the time of their birth, their mother was either unlawfully present or in the country on a temporary visa, and their father was neither a U.S. citizen nor a lawful permanent resident. This policy is set to take effect on February 19, 2025, and is not retroactive.
In response, 22 states have filed lawsuits challenging the constitutionality of the executive order, asserting that it violates the 14th Amendment's Citizenship Clause.
Legal experts widely anticipate that the Supreme Court will uphold the precedent supporting birthright citizenship as constitutional.
The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) has also initiated legal action against the order, emphasizing that birthright citizenship is a fundamental promise of equality in the United States.
This executive action has sparked widespread protests and debates across the nation, with critics arguing that it undermines the principles enshrined in the Constitution.
