Trump's decision is overturned, Supreme Court: Anyone born in the US is an
Donald Trump

The United States Supreme Court has struck down an executive order signed by US President Donald Trump, which aimed to end the automatic acquisition of US citizenship for children born on US territory.

By a majority of five judges, the Court ruled that Trump's order violates the 14th Amendment to the US Constitution.

Chief Justice John Roberts joined Justices Sonia Sotomayor, Elena Kagan, Amy Coney Barrett and Ketanji Brown Jackson in finding the policy unlawful. Justice Brett Kavanaugh concurred with the final decision, but in a separate opinion he said he did not believe the order violated the 14th Amendment, although he said it “contradicts a federal law.”

Trump signed the order in January 2025, at the start of his second term in the White House. It was part of his administration's policies to restrict immigration, both legal and illegal.

According to the order, 30 days after it goes into effect, children born in the US would no longer automatically gain US citizenship if their parents were in the country illegally or for temporary residence.

The 14th Amendment, adopted in 1868, states that: “All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside.”

Delivering the majority’s reasoning, Chief Justice John Roberts wrote: “Children born in the United States to parents who are in the country illegally or temporarily are subject to the jurisdiction of the United States and are citizens at birth under the Nationality Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment.”

"Citizenship, yesterday and today, was the right to have rights, to participate freely in our political community. The framers of the 14th Amendment extended this promise to every person born free in this country," he further emphasized.

In his reaction to the Supreme Court's recent rulings, published on the social network Truth Social, Trump said that the Republican Party, in general, had been "treated very fairly" by the Court, but added that his administration would "work to correct" the loss of this case through Congress.
