Supreme Court to Rule on Controversial Birthright Citizenship Directive

The Supreme Court will decide on the legality of President Trump's directive to limit birthright citizenship, a move that challenges the longstanding interpretation of the 14th Amendment. This directive, aiming to curb immigration, has been blocked by lower courts, sparking a complex legal battle.

The Supreme Court is set to rule on the legality of President Donald Trump's directive to restrict birthright citizenship as part of his immigration reforms. This directive challenges the traditional understanding of the 14th Amendment, which offers citizenship to anyone born on U.S. soil.

The case comes after lower courts blocked Trump's executive order, citing a violation of the U.S. Constitution's 14th Amendment. The legal battle is now expected to reach a conclusion as the Supreme Court hears arguments during its current term, with a decision anticipated by the end of June.

Critics argue that Trump's policies reflect bias against immigrants. Meanwhile, the administration defends the directive as a measure to deter illegal immigration and combat phenomena like 'birth tourism.' The Supreme Court's decision will be pivotal in resolving the legal disputes surrounding this issue.
