Gordon Robison: US and Middle East correspondent on the US Supreme Court rejecting Trump bid to limit birthright citizenship

from Heather du Plessis-Allan Drive · host Newstalk ZB

The US Supreme Court has rejected President Donald Trump's bid to restrict birthright citizenship - ruling 6-3 to maintain the current terms. Trump signed an executive order last year on the first day of his second term decreeing that children born to parents in the United States illegally or on temporary visas would not automatically become US citizens. US correspondent Gordon Robison says the Supreme Court stood up to Trump in order to maintain things - but it's a sign of how much things have shifted in the US.
