Court Rules Trump Birthright Citizenship Ban Likely Unconstitutional

A federal appeals court has ruled that the Trump administration's attempt to end birthright citizenship is likely unconstitutional. The First Circuit Court of Appeals upheld an injunction blocking the executive order, which aimed to restrict citizenship for children of undocumented immigrants or temporary visa holders. The court cited historical precedent, including past rejections of similar efforts, to support its decision. This ruling aligns with other court challenges that have not favored the administration's policy, which seeks to alter the interpretation of the 14th Amendment.
