Democratic states sue over Trump’s bid to end birthright citizenship
- Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes is suing over President Trump's executive order to ban birthright citizenship, which directs agencies not to issue citizenship documents if a parent is not legally in the U.S. Through citizenship or permanent residency.
- Eighteen states and two cities have joined the lawsuit to block Trump's order, arguing that birthright citizenship is guaranteed under the 14th Amendment, ratified in 1868.
- Trump's order questions whether the 14th Amendment extends citizenship automatically to anyone born in the United States, stating it excludes children of undocumented migrants.
- Immigrant rights groups are also filing suits against the order, claiming it is unconstitutional and harms American families, with New Jersey Attorney General Matt Platkin stating that the President cannot erase the 14th Amendment with an executive order.
