Trump says he will ask Supreme Court to rehear birthright citizenship case

Trump says the ruling ignores alleged birth tourism schemes that he claims could affect thousands of foreign births each year.

  • On Wednesday, President Donald Trump announced he will petition the U.S. Supreme Court to rehear the birthright citizenship case, following the court's 6-3 rejection of his executive order last week.
  • Trump pointed to 'signs and billboards' at the U.S. border with Mexico advertising deliveries for $4,000, labeling the practice a 'SCAM' that illegally grants citizenship to babies born to foreign nationals.
  • Separately, Governor Greg Abbott ordered the Texas Health and Human Services Commission to investigate Mission Regional Medical Center on Tuesday, alleging the hospital targets foreign travelers for 'birth tourism' through advertising.
  • Legal experts note the Supreme Court rarely grants rehearings, as such requests require a majority of justices from the original decision to support the request under Court rules.
  • House Speaker Mike Johnson expressed support for legislative efforts to curtail birthright citizenship, though constitutional scholars note prohibiting the policy would likely require amending the Constitution.
