Federal Judge Blocks Trump’s Newest Attempt to Crack Down on Birthright Citizenship
The ruling protects children’s citizenship while immigrant-rights groups continue a class-action challenge to Trump’s revised order.
- On Wednesday, Maryland District Judge Deborah Boardman blocked President Donald Trump's latest executive order limiting birthright citizenship, granting a preliminary injunction to immigrant rights advocates.
- This ruling follows the Supreme Court's rejection of Trump's initial 2025 effort, which the administration sought to revive through an August 6 order targeting 'birth tourism.'
- Boardman called the directive 'almost certainly unconstitutional,' noting it contradicts the 14th Amendment and the high court's recent ruling that children born in the United States are citizens.
- The injunction protects babies represented by the Asylum Seeker Advocacy Project and CASA, ensuring their citizenship status remains honored while litigation continues.
- Justice Department attorneys previously argued the lawsuit was premature, as federal agencies have yet to issue public implementation guidance expected by September 5.
