Court Blocks Trump's Birth Citizenship Order | Dallas News

A federal judge has temporarily blocked a Trump-era executive order aimed at denying automatic citizenship to children born in the U.S. to certain groups—including “alien enemies,” foreign government workers, and birth tourism participants—citing violations of the Fourteenth Amendment and prior Supreme Court rulings. The court found the order’s broad definitions, especially around “alien enemies” and commercial transactions like paying for a birth abroad, unconstitutional and overreaching. Legal experts warn this could set dangerous precedents, while advocates stress that citizenship by birth is a constitutional right that cannot be rewritten by presidential decree. The case remains unresolved, with the legal battle far from over. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
