The U.S. Supreme Court struck down President Donald Trump's executive order seeking to end birthright citizenship, according to Insider Paper. The ruling affirms that the 14th Amendment guarantee of citizenship to anyone born on U.S. soil remains intact.
The Supreme Court's ruling marks a definitive end to President Trump's legal challenge to birthright citizenship, which has been a central flashpoint in his second term. The decision upholds the long-standing interpretation of the 14th Amendment's Citizenship Clause, which grants automatic citizenship to any child born in the United States, regardless of their parents' immigration status.
As The Zioneer previously reported on June 29, the court was expected to weigh in on the matter. Today's ruling confirms that the administration's effort to reinterpret the clause — which had drawn sharp criticism from both immigration advocates and constitutional scholars — has been rejected in full. No further appeals are available.
The case had been expedited by the court, reflecting the high stakes and national attention around the issue. The White House has not yet issued a formal response.
