Federal judge issues new nationwide block against Trump’s order seeking to end birthright citizenship
UNITED STATES, JUL 11 – A federal judge certified a nationwide class action and blocked enforcement of Trump’s order that would strip citizenship from over 150,000 U.S.-born children annually, citing irreparable harm.
- In a New Hampshire federal court, Judge Joseph LaPlante certified a class-action lawsuit and issued a nationwide injunction blocking Trump's executive order on birthright citizenship.
- On Jan. 20, President Donald Trump signed an executive order to restrict birthright citizenship for children of undocumented or temporary-status parents.
- Advocates estimate that over 150,000 babies born in the U.S. annually from February 20, 2025, could be denied automatic citizenship under the policy.
- Laplante stayed his injunction for seven days to allow the Trump administration to appeal, delaying enforcement of the order ending birthright citizenship.
- The Trump administration is expected to appeal the ruling, fast-tracking the case to the U.S. Supreme Court amid ongoing legal challenges to the birthright citizenship order.
