Former U.S. President Donald Trump has announced plans to implement executive orders aimed at ending birthright citizenship for children of undocumented immigrants and curbing birth tourism. Under the proposed plan, automatic U.S. citizenship would require at least one parent to be a American citizen or legal permanent resident. The policy seeks to reinterpret the Citizenship Clause of the 14th Amendment, which has historically granted citizenship to nearly everyone born on U.S. soil. Legal scholars and civil rights advocacy groups anticipate immediate constitutional challenges to the proposed executive action in federal court.
- The proposed executive order seeks to end automatic birthright citizenship for children born in the U.S. to undocumented immigrants.
- Under the measure, at least one parent must be a U.S. citizen or legal permanent resident for a newborn to qualify for citizenship.
- The initiative specifically targets birth tourism, where pregnant women travel to the United States to secure citizenship for their children.
- The plan challenges long-standing interpretations of the 14th Amendment to the United States Constitution.
- Legal experts expect the policy to face extensive legal challenges regarding its constitutionality if enacted.

i guess people who love guns..
The Supreme Court ruled that everyone born in the US is an American citizen. The Constitution says that anybody born in US soil is an American citizen. As usual, Trump doesn't respect both. This is an executive order. This is going to go to the Courts and lose because it has no merit. Trump is a clown.
The Supreme Court JUST SAID this very thing was unconstitutional!!!!!
The Constitution says that anybody born in US soil is an American citizen. Trump can't change that. 🙂
The 14th Amendment explicitly states: "All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside."
I really get what the Supreme Court says. Doesn’t mean we can’t go out of our way to stop people who are pregnant from coming here. And yes a few thousand people hurt. They start having children and it gets to be too much. Look at hasan piker. The us never needed him to be born here
The Supreme Court has determined that the President DOES NOT have the Constitutional power to determine this. He's just grasping at straws again.
I wonder how thorough the vetting of the Trump Gold Card applicants is?
Media from a jus sanguinis country commenting on other's citizenship policies is REALLY RICH
Ridiculous. Everyone knows it’s being taken advantage of. But your bleeding hearts can possibly acknowledge it.
