Supreme Court Defends Birthright Citizenship | Lansing News

The Supreme Court just struck down a former president’s attempt to scrap birthright citizenship, reaffirming that anyone born on U.S. soil is automatically a citizen — a landmark win for immigrant families and constitutional rights. Michigan’s AG Dana Nessel hailed the decision, calling it a clear constitutional victory against a dishonest effort to erase a fundamental American principle. The move, which sought to require at least one parent to be a citizen or green card holder, faced swift legal challenges — and now the highest court has shut it down, emphasizing that this core Fourteenth Amendment right can’t be undone by executive order. For countless families, this ruling is both a legal and emotional victory, cementing their place in the nation’s fabric.
