The Trump administration has taken action to limit birthright citizenship through new executive orders. One order specifically targets “birth tourism,” aiming to deny citizenship to children born in the U.S. to non-citizen parents who come to the country primarily for that purpose. The legal basis for these orders is being widely questioned, as the 14th Amendment generally guarantees citizenship to all born in the United States. Critics argue the president cannot unilaterally alter constitutional rights through executive action. The move is viewed as a key component of the administration’s broader efforts to restrict immigration. Further legal challenges are expected to determine the validity and scope of these orders, potentially reaching the Supreme Court. This policy shift reflects a continued focus on tightening immigration rules before the end of the current term.
