Trump to Issue Executive Order Ending Birthright Citizenship, Citing 14th Amendment
Jan 20, 2025, 04:19 PM
President-elect Donald Trump plans to issue an executive order on his first day in office to end birthright citizenship for children born to undocumented immigrants in the United States, citing the 14th Amendment. This move is part of a broader set of executive actions aimed at overhauling U.S. immigration policy and enhancing border security. The order will clarify language in the 14th Amendment, stating that the federal government will not recognize automatic citizenship for children of illegal immigrants born in the U.S. This policy change is expected to face legal challenges, as some experts argue that altering birthright citizenship requires a constitutional amendment, not an executive order. Trump's administration also plans to suspend refugee resettlement for four months and end the use of the CBP One app, which had allowed migrants to legally enter the U.S.
