Judge Blocks Trump's Birthright Order After Supreme Court Ruling
A US federal judge on Tuesday blocked the Trump administration from implementing its controversial birthright citizenship policy, just one day after the Supreme Court ruled against two Biden administration attempts to halt the policy. The ruling by US District Judge Carl Nichols is a major setback for the Trump administration, which has long sought to end birthright citizenship.
The policy, if implemented, would deny citizenship to children born to undocumented immigrants, despite longstanding constitutional provisions and legal interpretations that any child born on US soil automatically qualifies as a citizen.
