US Supreme Court Upholds Birthright Citizenship, Rejects Trump's Restriction Order
The U.S. Supreme Court ruled 6-3 against President Donald Trump's executive order seeking to restrict birthright citizenship, reaffirming the long-standing interpretation of the 14th Amendment. The order aimed to deny automatic citizenship to children born in the U.S. to parents who are undocumented or temporarily present. The court upheld that nearly all born on American soil are citizens, with limited exceptions such as children of foreign diplomats. The ruling marks a significant setback for Trump's immigration agenda and provides relief to immigrant families, including many Indian visa holders.
