President Trump has signed two executive orders aimed at curtailing birthright citizenship and aggressively combating “birth tourism.” These actions represent a renewed effort to restrict automatic citizenship following a Supreme Court ruling against a previous attempt. Trump characterized the Supreme Court’s decision as unfavorable, alleging that individuals from other countries exploit the system to obtain US citizenship for their children. The new orders seek to interpret the 14th Amendment more narrowly, potentially challenging the long-standing principle of *jus soli*—birthright citizenship. The administration intends to prioritize denying entry to those believed to be traveling to the US specifically to utilize birthright citizenship. These measures are likely to face legal challenges, mirroring the fate of earlier attempts to alter birthright citizenship rules. The White House framed the effort as protecting national security and taxpayer resources.
