Trump and other Republicans have sought to end birthright citizenship


Recommended Posts

because of a concern immigrants sometimes deliver children in the United States to gain a toehold to remain. Trump’s order, to take effect in the next 30 days, directed the Social Security Administration to no longer recognize the children as citizens and the State Department to stop issuing them passports.

The constitutional provision was ratified in 1868, after the Civil War, and upheld by the Supreme Court in 1898.

“Birthright citizenship is a cornerstone of our democracy,” Theo Oshiro, co-executive director of the advocacy group Make the Road New York, said in a statement. “To deny their children the same basic rights as all other children born in the United States is an affront to basic values of fairness, equality, and inclusivity.”

According to the White House, "the privilege of United States citizenship does not automatically extend to persons born in the United States" under certain circumstances, including parents determined to be "unlawfully present," "not a United States citizen or lawful permanent resident" or in the country under legal but temporary status (i.e., working, student and tourist visas).

 

Expected to go in effect in 30 days, the policy would not be retroactive.
