Supreme Court Weighs Trump’s Birthright Citizenship Order: A Constitutional Crossroads
On May 15, 2025, the United States Supreme Court convened to hear arguments in a case that could redefine the nation's understanding of citizenship. At the heart of the debate is Executive Order 14160, signed by President Donald Trump on January 20, 2025, which seeks to deny U.S. citizenship to children born on American soil unless at least one parent is a U.S. citizen or lawful permanent resident . This executive action challenges the long-standing interpretation of the 14th Amendment's Citizenship Clause, which has historically granted citizenship to nearly all individuals born in the United States.
Breaking Down the Supreme Court Battle Over Trump’s Bid to End Birthright Citizenship
The debate over birthright citizenship has reemerged as one of the most consequential constitutional and policy questions in contemporary American politics. On May 15, 2025, the U.S. Supreme Court convened a special oral argument session to consider whether the administration of President Donald J. Trump may implement an executive order redefining the scope of the Fourteenth Amendment’s Citizenship Clause—specifically by excluding from automatic U.S. citizenship children born on American soil to parents “unlawfully present” or “lawful but temporary” in the country. Traditionally, birthright citizenship, enshrined in the plain language of Section 1 of the Fourteenth Amendment (“All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States…”), has been interpreted broadly since the seminal Supreme Court decision in United States v. Wong Kim Ark (1898).
