US EditionNew documents show how passport and Social Security rules would change to enforce Trump’s birthright citizenship order
UNITED STATES, JUL 29 – New government rules would require parents to prove citizenship or legal status to obtain passports and Social Security numbers for about 250,000 U.S.-born children annually, officials said.
- Following the Supreme Court decision last month, new documents from federal agencies emerged showing how to implement President Donald Trump’s order to end birthright citizenship.
- During oral arguments earlier this year, the Supreme Court’s conservative majority reviewed practical implications, with Justice Brett Kavanaugh questioning, `We need clarity.`
- According to the Social Security Administration, the agency would attempt to automatically establish parents’ status and then require evidence of citizenship or immigration at birth.
- Last week, the Ninth Circuit blocked Trump’s policy, and earlier this month, Judge Joseph LaPlante granted an injunction to keep it on hold.
- Advocates including Conchita Cruz stressed that U.S.-born children remain citizens regardless of parents' status, while New Jersey Attorney General Matthew Platkin argued guidance is hollow given injunctions.
