The Trump administration submitted a request to the Supreme Court to maintain its executive order terminating birthright citizenship. This order, issued earlier this week, effectively removes legal barriers preventing individuals born into the United States from acquiring U.S. citizenship. The administration argues the order is consistent with established legal precedent and reflects a policy of prioritizing the nation’s citizenship rights. The request seeks a clarification on the scope of the executive order’s authority. The Supreme Court will review the request within the court’s established timeline.
