Supreme Court Upholds Birthright Citizenship | Vancouver News

The Supreme Court just delivered a major win for birthright citizenship, firmly rejecting President Trump’s controversial executive order that sought to deny automatic citizenship to children born in the U.S. to undocumented or temporary visitors. Grounded in the Fourteenth Amendment — a cornerstone of American identity since the Civil War — the ruling reaffirms that nearly all babies born on U.S. soil are citizens, with only rare exceptions like children of foreign diplomats. Despite Trump’s attempt to rewrite this long-standing legal principle, even conservative justices signaled skepticism, and the decision upholds decades of precedent dating back to 1898. This ruling not only protects hundreds of thousands of children each year but also serves as a powerful check on executive overreach, cementing a fundamental right for those born within America’s borders.
