NOTUS: Federal Judge Blocks Trump’s Latest Effort to Restrict Birthright Citizenship
NOTUS reports that a federal judge in Maryland temporarily blocked the Trump Administration from enforcing its latest restrictions on birthright citizenship against a nationwide class of children, finding that the policy likely violates the 14th Amendment. The ruling follows the Supreme Court’s June decision affirming that children born in the United States are citizens at birth and represents another setback to the Administration’s efforts to restrict birthright citizenship.
