After Inauguration, Trump Ends Birthright Citizenship; 22 States Sue Over 14th Amendment
Jan 21, 2025, 08:39 PM
President Donald Trump signed an executive order on Monday, shortly after his inauguration, ending birthright citizenship for children born to undocumented immigrants in the United States. The order seeks to reinterpret the 14th Amendment, which states that all persons born or naturalized in the U.S. are citizens. In response, attorneys general from 22 states, along with the District of Columbia and cities like San Francisco, filed lawsuits on Tuesday to block the executive order, arguing that it is unconstitutional. The American Civil Liberties Union and immigrant rights groups also filed lawsuits challenging the order. California Attorney General Rob Bonta stated, "President Trump has overstepped his authority by a mile, and we will hold him accountable." Maryland Attorney General Anthony Brown called the move "un-American."
