New Hampshire judge to hear arguments on class action against Trump’s birthright citizenship order

MERRIMACK COUNTY, NEW HAMPSHIRE, JUL 09 – A federal judge will consider certifying a class-action lawsuit challenging the executive order that could affect tens of thousands of infants born to undocumented immigrants, legal groups said.

  • On July 10, a district court judge in New Hampshire will consider arguments regarding the certification of a class-action lawsuit opposing President Trump's birthright citizenship executive order issued in January.
  • The lawsuit arose after the Supreme Court limited nationwide injunctions on June 27, prompting immigration advocates to seek class-action status to block the order's implementation.
  • Plaintiffs include parents and infants such as a Honduran asylum-seeker expecting a child in October, represented by groups like the ACLU and CASA legal director Ama Frimpong.
  • Judge Laplante stated that denying citizenship would make affected children undocumented or stateless, while plaintiffs argue tens of thousands of newborns face loss of rights without an injunction.
  • If the judge certifies the class and issues an injunction, it would block enforcement of Trump's order nationwide, impacting future legal battles over the 14th Amendment citizenship clause.
