Supreme Court Deliberates on Birthright Citizenship and Trump’s Immigration Policy

The U.S. Supreme Court is reviewing the legality of President Trump's policy to restrict birthright citizenship. This policy challenges the 14th Amendment's Citizenship Clause, aiming to exclude children born to non-citizen parents. Critics argue it discriminates based on race and religion, while the administration cites immigration control.

The U.S. Supreme Court is poised to examine the legality of President Trump's directive on birthright citizenship restrictions, a controversial move aligned with his immigration crackdown efforts.

The court will assess the administration's appeal following a lower court's block on the order affecting children born in the U.S. to non-citizen parents.

Trump's policy challenges longstanding interpretations of the 14th Amendment, potentially impacting 250,000 annual births, with critics accusing the approach of racial and religious bias.
