Mexico and US Grant Birthright Citizenship Amid US Policy Debate
Mexico, like the United States, grants birthright citizenship to children born on its soil, a policy central to debates as US President Donald Trump seeks to end this practice for children of parents living in the country illegally or with temporary status. Haitian migrant Vivianne Petit Frere, who fled Haiti in 2019, now runs a restaurant in Tijuana where her granddaughter, born in Mexico, automatically received citizenship. About three dozen countries, mainly in the Americas, have similar policies. The US Supreme Court is expected to review the constitutionality of Trump's order.
