US Supreme Court considers Trump's effort to limit birthright citizenship - reuters.com

The U.S. Supreme Court is reviewing Trump administration efforts to restrict birthright citizenship, a constitutional right granted to children born on U.S. soil under the 14th Amendment. The case represents a direct legal challenge to a nearly 150-year-old interpretation of citizenship law that has been applied consistently across decades of jurisprudence. A ruling in favor of the administration could fundamentally alter who qualifies for automatic U.S. citizenship at birth, affecting millions of future Americans and potentially reshaping immigration policy. The case hinges on how the Court interprets the 14th Amendment's citizenship clause and whether it applies to children of illegal immigrants and certain other non-citizen parents. This marks one of the most significant constitutional questions the Court faces regarding immigration and citizenship rights.
