It is already known that the Donald Trump administration in the United States tried to cancel the birth citizenship act as a part of their broader plan to restrict immigration.

However, this decision came under the scrutiny of the legal department and something pretty extraordinary has happened with regard to the United States Supreme Court now.

The US Supreme Court has upheld birthright citizenship, rejecting President Donald Trump’s attempt to end automatic citizenship for children born in the United States to undocumented immigrants and most temporary foreign residents.

In a 6-3 ruling, the court reaffirmed that the Citizenship Clause of the 14th Amendment guarantees US citizenship to anyone born on American soil and ruled that the Constitution does not support Trump’s interpretation of the law.

Writing for the majority, Chief Justice John Roberts said the amendment’s language is clear, stating that “all persons born or naturalised in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States.”

The ruling effectively blocks Trump’s executive order, which sought to deny automatic citizenship to children born to parents who are in the country illegally or on temporary visas. The court held that such a constitutional guarantee cannot be overturned through executive action.

This is a significant setback to the Donald Trump administration in the United States and it has to be seen how he would react to the same now.
