Border Report Live: Supreme Court to Hear Arguments over Trump’s Birthright Citizenship Order
The justices will weigh whether a president can limit constitutional citizenship by executive order, with a ruling expected by summer.
- The Supreme Court is set to hear arguments regarding President Donald Trump's 2025 executive order aimed at ending birthright citizenship for certain children born on U.S. soil.
- For more than 150 years, the 14th Amendment has been widely interpreted to guarantee citizenship to anyone born in the United States, a precedent solidified in the 1898 Supreme Court case United States v. Wong Kim Ark.
- Joshua Kastenberg, a law professor at the University of New Mexico, argues changing birthright citizenship would require a constitutional amendment, "not an executive order." He notes the president cannot limit the Constitution through executive action.
- Critics warn that ending birthright citizenship could create a new class of people born in the U.S. who are not recognized as citizens, a shift carrying far-reaching legal and social implications.
- A ruling in the case is expected by the end of the Court's term this summer, potentially redefining citizenship scope and testing the balance of power between the presidency and the Constitution.
