Supreme Court Upholds Birthright Citizenship | Global News

The Supreme Court just delivered a landmark ruling upholding birthright citizenship — babies born in the U.S. automatically become citizens, regardless of their parents’ immigration status. This decision, rooted in the 14th Amendment and dating back 150 years, shuts down President Trump’s executive order attempt to redefine “subject to the jurisdiction” of the U.S. Civil rights groups are cheering, while Trump calls it “too bad” and pushes Congress to legislatively overturn it. The 6-3 ruling, led by Chief Justice Roberts, reaffirms citizenship as a fundamental right to participate in American democracy, while dissenters — Thomas, Gorsuch, and Alito — argue the amendment is being misapplied. For now, the status quo stands: anyone born on U.S. soil is a citizen — and changing that won’t be easy.
