Seattle Judge Temporarily Blocks Trump's Order on Birthright Citizenship Set for February 19, 2025
Jan 23, 2025, 06:44 PM
A federal judge in Seattle has temporarily blocked an executive order signed by President Donald Trump that sought to end the constitutional guarantee of birthright citizenship. The order, which was set to take effect on February 19, 2025, would have impacted the citizenship status of children born in the U.S. to non-citizen parents. U.S. District Judge John C. Coughenour issued the ruling in response to a lawsuit filed by the states of Washington, Arizona, Illinois, and Oregon, arguing that the 14th Amendment and Supreme Court precedents uphold birthright citizenship. This case is part of a broader legal challenge, with 22 states and various immigrant rights groups filing lawsuits against the order. The executive order has sparked significant legal debate, with critics asserting it contradicts established constitutional rights.
