US judge blocks Trump's birthright citizenship order

A federal judge issued a temporary restraining order blocking President Donald Trump's executive order that would end birthright citizenship, calling it blatantly unconstitutional.
The restraining order was granted to four Democratic-led states, including Washington, arguing that the order violates the 14th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution.
The Trump administration contends that the order is valid, stating it allows the exclusion of children of undocumented immigrants from citizenship.
The case could ultimately be decided by the U.S. Supreme Court, with significant implications for children born in the United States to undocumented parents.
