Supreme Court Will Decide If Trump Can End Automatic Birthright Citizenship

The Supreme Court agreed on Friday to consider President Donald Trump’s executive order limiting birthright citizenship.

Trump issued the executive order ending guaranteed citizenship for children of illegal aliens or migrants on temporary visas in January on his first day in office.

The Trump administration urged the justices to take up the case in September after lower courts held his order unconstitutional.

“The Clause was adopted to confer citizenship on the newly freed slaves and their children, not on the children of aliens temporarily visiting the United States or of illegal aliens,” the administration’s petition states.
