Birthright citizenship fight continues after Trump's new executive orders
After the Supreme Court's 6-3 ruling in Trump v. Barbara upholding birthright citizenship, President Trump signed two narrower executive orders targeting 'birth tourism' and diplomatic exceptions. Legal challenges are imminent, testing the limits of the Court's holding and likely returning the issue to SCOTUS. The practical impact of the original ruling includes $104B in tariff refunds and termination of TPS for up to 350K Haitians.
