Birthright citizenship upheld:
In a big loss for President Donald Trump, the Supreme Court
upheld birthright citizenship
, striking down his executive order. Chief Justice John Roberts, calling citizenship “the right to have rights,” wrote for the court that “the Framers of the Fourteenth Amendment extended that promise to ‘every free-born person in this land.’ We keep that promise today.”
Read the full opinion.
• Ruling on trans sports:
The Supreme Court is
letting states ban transgender athletes
from playing on girls’ sports teams. The ruling was a major defeat for the LGBTQ movement, and it came a year after the
justices allowed states to ban transgender care
for minors, such as puberty blockers and hormone therapy.
• Campaign finance:
The court also lifted
a Watergate-era cap
on how much money political parties may spend in coordination with candidates.

WASHINGTON (AP) —
The Supreme Court

The justices relied on a long-settled understanding of

In a sharp rebuke to President Trump, the Supreme Court ruled Tuesday that the Constitution guarantees automatic birthright citizenship to virtually all children born in the United States.
Chief Justice John Roberts wrote the court's 6-3 opinion.
The decision firmly rejected the executive order that Trump issued on the first day of his second term. It sought to bar citizenship for babies born in the U.S. to parents who either entered the country illegally or who are living and working here legally with temporary visas. The executive order never went into effect because every lower court judge who reviewed it concluded, in the words of one judge, that it was "blatantly unconstitutional."
Trump has long maintained that the Constitution does not guarantee birthright citizenship. But as Chief Justice Roberts observed, the men who wrote the Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution…
The United States Supreme Court on Tuesday struck down the attempts of President Donald Trump to curtail birthright citizenship, a rejection of his most aggressive crackdown on illegal immigration.
The United States Supreme Court on Tuesday struck down the attempts of President Donald Trump to curtail birthright citizenship, a rejection of his most aggressive crackdown on illegal immigration.
The court, in a 6-3 decision, struck down President Donald Trump’s executive order that would have undercut the concept that any person born on American soil is automatically a citizen.
The right to citizenship for all persons born or naturalised in the United States is enshrined in the 14th Amendment to the US constitution. But Trump had sought to limit it on the first day of his second term in office.
“Citizenship, then and now, was the right to have rights — to freely participate in our political community. The Framers of the Fourteenth Amendment extended that promise to ‘every free-born person in this land’. We keep that promise today,” Chief Justice John Roberts said.
Recall that lower courts had already put Trump’s order on hold while the case was heard.
The President’s public attitude towards the court has soured since the tariffs ruling, even though he appointed three of its nine justices.
The Republican has repeatedly lashed out at it and predicted the justices would hand him a …

What to know about birthright citizenship ahead of Supreme Court's ...
The ruling is one of the most highly anticipated of the year.
The U.S. Supreme Court isexpected to weigh inthis week onPresident Donald Trump's attempt to end birthright citizenshipby executive order, a move which would upend more than a century of legalprecedent and a national tradition that have said babies born on American soil are automatically American citizens.
The ruling, one of themost highly anticipated of the year, is a major test of Trump's unprecedented assertion ofpresidentialpower in his second term with major stakes formillions of children and their families.
What is birthright citizenship?
Birthright citizenshipis the idea that a child automatically becomes a citizen of the country in which they are born, regardless of the immigration status of theirparents.
It reflects the principle ofjus soli, or right of the soil, extending citizenship purely on the basis of geographic location.
By contrast, many countries extend citizenship under the principle ofjus sanguinis,or right of blood, which is determined by the nationality of a child's parents regardless of the location of birth.

PresidentDonald Trumpis set to face a series of crucialSupreme Courtrulings over the next two weeks, with decisions expected on several cases that could significantly impact his administration's immigration policies, presidential powers and governing agenda.
According to NBC News, the US Supreme Court has 20 cases left to decide before concluding its current term at the end of June.
Among the most closely watched are challenges involving Trump's effort to restrict birthright citizenship, his attempts to remove officials from independent federal agencies and his administration's hard-lineimmigration policies.
The rulings come months after the Supreme Court dealt Trump a setback by blocking his sweeping tariff policy in February. While legal experts expect the administration to lose some of the pending cases, others could reinforce the president's efforts to expand executive authority.
Here's a look at the key Trump-related cases awaiting decisions.
The most anticipated ruling concerns Trump's effort to reinterpret the Citizenship Clause of the 14th Amendment.

Washington —
The Supreme Court on Tuesday struck down
President Trump's executive order
seeking to end birthright citizenship, reaffirming the more than 100-year-old understanding that nearly all of those born in the United States are citizens.
In a divided
decision
in the case Trump v. Barbara, the Supreme Court split 6-3 in finding that Mr. Trump's policy is unlawful. Five of the justices — Chief Justice John Roberts and Justices Sonia Sotomayor, Elena Kagan, Amy Coney Barrett and Ketanji Brown Jackson — agreed that Mr. Trump's executive order violates the 14th Amendment of the Constitution. Justice Brett Kavanaugh wrote separately to say he believes the order violates federal law.
Justices Clarence Thomas, Samuel Alito and Neil Gorsuch dissented.
With the decision, the Supreme Court has now invalidated a second of Mr. Trump's signature initiatives from his second term, joining its ruling
striking down many of his tariffs
in February. The president signed his directive aiming to restrict birthright citizenship on his first day back in the White House as part of a sweeping crackdown on immigration.

WASHINGTON— In a major victory, the U.S. Supreme Court today ruled that President Donald Trump’s executive order seeking to restrict birthright citizenship is unconstitutional. The American Civil Liberties Union, ACLU of New Hampshire, ACLU of Maine, ACLU of Massachusetts, Legal Defense Fund, Asian Law Caucus, and the Democracy Defenders Fund brought the successful challenge inTrump v. Barbaraon behalf of children who would have been denied citizenship under the order.
In its 6-to-3 decision, the court struck down the president’s 2025 executive order, which sought to strip citizenship from American children born to undocumented parents. The decision reaffirms that birthright citizenship is guaranteed by the Constitution and rejects President Trump’s attempt to redefine who is an American citizen through executive action.
The following are reactions to today’s ruling:
“The court’s decision reaffirms a fundamental American promise — if you are born here, you are a citizen,” saidACLU National Legal Director Cecillia Wang, who argued the case at the Supreme Court.“A president cannot change the Const…

Today marks the last day of the U.S. Supreme Court's current term
, and major rulings are expected. Two key cases involve bans on transgender athletes. The court's possibly most anticipated ruling focuses on
birthright citizenship
. The case questions whether the U.S. should automatically grant citizenship to children born here, particularly in light of President Trump's executive order to deny citizenship to children whose parents entered the U.S. illegally or are on temporary visas. At the heart of the issue is the 14th Amendment, which states, "All persons born or naturalized in the United States and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States."

Supreme Court strikes down Trump's birthright order; upholds state bans on trans athletes in girls' sports.
byAUSTIN DENEAN | The National News Desk
WASHINGTON (TNND) —The Supreme Court ruled against President Donald Trump’s attempt to overturn birthright citizenship, dealing a blow to his plans to crack down on immigration in the United States.
In a 6-3 ruling, the Supreme Court ruled Trump’s executive order is unconstitutional.
Birthright citizenshipgrants anyone born in the United States American citizenship, regardless of their immigration status, with some exceptions for children of foreign diplomats. It became law in 1868 with the ratification of the 14th Amendment in the aftermath in the civil war.
It was expanded in the late 1800s when the Supreme Court ruled a man born in the U.S. to Chinese parents had a right to U.S. citizenship. The high court has made rulings in later cases that anyone born in the country is a citizen regardless of their parents’ immigration status.
The 14th Amendment says, “all persons born or naturalized in the U.S., and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States.” Lower courts and the S…

By a 6-3 vote, the court struck down Trump's order.

(TNND) —Supreme Court justices are expected to deliver their final opinions on Tuesday ahead of the court's summer recess, and the biggest decision — President Donald Trump's attempt toend birthright citizenship— has yet to be announced.
At the center of the dispute is the 14th Amendment, ratified in 1868 after the Civil War, which states that all "persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof," are U.S. citizens.
The Supreme Court's 1898 ruling in United States v. Wong Kim Ark has long been interpreted as guaranteeing birthright citizenship to nearly everyone born on U.S. soil, with limited exceptions, such as children of foreign diplomats.
Trump signed the birthright citizenshipexecutive orderon Jan. 20, 2025, just hours after being sworn in for his second term.
His order argues that children born to noncitizen parents who are either in the country unlawfully or who have temporary legal status, such as tourists or foreign students, are not "subject to the jurisdiction" of the U.S. and are therefore ineligible for automatic citizenship.
The policy wasi…

The U.S. Supreme Court’s annual “June boom” is about to begin, bringing an end to months of speculation.
The justices are poised to hand down decisions in several landmark cases in the weeks ahead. Their rulings could have sweeping implications for birthright citizenship, presidential power, transgender athletes and more.

Birthright Citizenship
One of the most closely watched cases has been
Trump v. Barbara
, which scrutinizes an executive order signed by President Donald Trump on his first day of this term in office.
Executive Order 14160 targeted the citizenship status of children born in the U.S. to unauthorized immigrant parents or to parents living in the U.S. temporarily.
“The Fourteenth Amendment has never been interpreted to extend citizenship universally to everyone born within the United States,” the order reads. “The Fourteenth Amendment has always excluded from birthright citizenship p…

Supreme Court strikes down Trump's birthright order; upholds state bans on trans athletes in girls' sports.
byAUSTIN DENEAN | The National News Desk
WASHINGTON (TNND) —The Supreme Court ruled against President Donald Trump’s attempt to overturn birthright citizenship, dealing a blow to his plans to crack down on immigration in the United States.
In a 6-3 ruling, the Supreme Court ruled Trump’s executive order is unconstitutional.
Birthright citizenshipgrants anyone born in the United States American citizenship, regardless of their immigration status, with some exceptions for children of foreign diplomats. It became law in 1868 with the ratification of the 14th Amendment in the aftermath in the civil war.
It was expanded in the late 1800s when the Supreme Court ruled a man born in the U.S. to Chinese parents had a right to U.S. citizenship. The high court has made rulings in later cases that anyone born in the country is a citizen regardless of their parents’ immigration status.

The 6-3 ruling reaffirms more than a century of legal precedent.
The Supreme Court on Tuesday rejected President Donald Trump's attempt toend birthright citizenshipin the U.S. by executive order, reaffirming in a 6-3 ruling more than a century of legal precedent and national tradition that babies born on American soil are automatically American citizens.
The decision is a blow to Trump, who had lobbied the court to uphold his Day 1 order and attended oral arguments in the case, becoming the first sitting president to do so.
Trump had argued that children born to unlawful immigrants and temporary visitors, like tourists and foreign students, do not qualify for citizenship under terms of the 14th Amendment, which was enacted after the Civil War to address the status of former slaves and their descendants.
Immigrant advocates and civil liberties groups opposing the policy change warned that it would harm hundreds of thousands of children born every year to non-citizen parents and create a bureaucratic nightmare for older Americans, who would no longer be able to prove citizenship simply with a birth certifica…

Arizona advocates cheer Supreme Court birthright citizenship decision

Immigrant advocates in Arizona applauded the Supreme Court's ruling on Tuesday, June 30, which rejected President Donald Trump's executive order that sought to block children born in the United States to undocumented immigrants from automatically becoming citizens.
The Supreme Court's justices ruled 6-3 against the president's executive order, stating that children born in the United States to parents unlawfully or temporarily present are “subject to the jurisdiction” of the United States and are citizens at birth under the Fourteenth Amendment’s Citizenship Clause.
"It would have been disastrous," had the Supreme Court upheld Trump's executive order, said Delia Salvatierra, a Phoenix immigration attorney. "It would have upended people's lives, people's futures. People were very afraid."
The Supreme Court's ruling was based on the words and meaning of 14th Amendment, not policy or political considerations or "siding with undoc…

Born in the USA: Supreme Court rebuffs Trump's bid to end birthright citizenship
The US Supreme Court has delivered a significant blow to President Trump's executive order, upholding birthright citizenship for children born on American soil to undocumented or temporary visa holders. In a 6-3 decision, the court affirmed that the 14th Amendment guarantees citizenship to nearly all individuals born in the U.S., reaffirming over a century of legal precedent. This ruling removes a key immigration initiative from the administration's agenda.

WASHINGTON − The Supreme Court is heading into the homestretch for its biggest cases of the term, with potentially landmark opinions still to come as early as June 18 on issues ranging from presidential power to culture war fights to
birthright citizenship
.
The justices are expected to hand down 20 remaining decisions in the coming days as they aim to wrap up by the end of the month.
The court doesn’t announce in advance which decisions are coming and often drops the blockbusters in the final days before its summer recess.
Here’s a look at the biggest outstanding cases.

The Supreme Court on Tuesday
struck down
President Donald Trump’s
executive order
seeking to end birthright citizenship – the guarantee of citizenship to virtually everyone born in the United States. In a decision by Chief Justice John Roberts, in
Trump v. Barbara
, the justices agreed with the challengers, as well as all of the lower courts around the country that have considered the issue, that Trump’s order cannot be reconciled with the
14th Amendment
to the Constitution, which confers citizenship on anyone “born … in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof.”
Writing for the majority, Roberts emphasized that the “children born of parents unlawfully or temporarily present in the United States” “satisfy both elements of the Citizenship Clause.” “Under the Constitution,” he concluded, “they are citizens at birth.”
In a dissenting opinion, Justice Samuel Alito called the ruling both “one of the most important decisions in the history of the Court” and “a serious mistake.” “Careful analysis of the text of the Fourteenth Amendm…

After the U.S. Supreme Court ruled against President Donald Trump’s attempt to redefine birthright citizenship through executive order on Tuesday, Trump demanded that Congress pass a law rescinding birthright citizenship rights instead.
The birthright citizenship clauseof the 14th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution reads, in part, that:
All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the state wherein they reside.
Trump’s executive order, issued on the first day of his second term in office, sought to define “subject to the jurisdiction thereof” as meaning that children born in the country to non-citizen parents were not technically subject to U.S. jurisdiction. On Tuesday, five justices of the Supreme Court rejected that argument.
Chief Justice John Roberts, who penned the majority opinion,dismissed argumentsby Trump and his allies that the 14th Amendmentwas written solely to address the issue of freed Black Americansfollowing the Civil War.
The “goal” of the amendment, Roberts wrote, including …

all children born in the United States are citizens,

Donald Trump
a loss on one of his top priorities.
Trump signed an executive order on the first day of his second term to limit citizenship to children born to citizens or legal permanent residents, rather than tourists or undocumented immigrants. But the high court has
interpreted the Constitution’s 14th Amendment
— ratified in 1868 and upheld in a ruling in 1898 — as granting citizenship to all babies born in the country, regardless of parentage.
After the ruling, Trump
urged Congress
to adopt his citizenship restrictions through legislation.

By Andrew Chung
Washington — The US Supreme Court handed President Donald Trump a stinging defeat on Tuesday, rejecting his audacious attempt to restrict birthright citizenship in the US — a right long woven into the fabric of American society — scuttling a priority in his crackdown on immigration.
The 6-3 ruling marked the second time this year the court has invalidated a major Trump initiative; in February it struck down his sweeping global tariffs.
The justices upheld a lower court’s decision that blocked Trump’s executive order directing state agencies not to recognise the citizenship of children born in the US if neither parent is an American citizen or legal permanent resident.
Challengers to Trump’s order argued that it violates language in the US constitution’s 14th Amendment that confers citizenship to those born in the US who are “subject to the jurisdiction thereof”.
Trump, who has repeatedly tested the limits of presidential power in domestic and foreign policy, issued the order last year on his first day back in office as part of a suite of policies to crack down on legal and illegal immigration. Critics have accused him of racial and …

The Supreme Court is poised to rule on the future of birthright citizenship, a decision that promises to be its most consequential since the overturning of abortion rights jurisprudence in 2022.
The ruling in
Trump vs Barbara
, which will be announced in the coming days as the Court wraps up its term, touches all the most important themes of Trump’s political career—a hard line on immigration, an expansive view of executive power and a willingness to challenge norms that have guided American public life for decades.
Trump is not optimistic about a ruling in his favor after conservative justices sounded skeptical during oral arguments. Nonetheless, with waves of illegal immigration testing the limits of a federal right initially designed to protect freed slaves after the Civil War, the case is also shaping up to be a test of how much the Supreme Court’s six conservative justices will stand up to the president …

WASHINGTON (AP) —
The Supreme Court
on Tuesday upheld a broad conception of
birthright citizenship
, rejecting President Donald Trump’s executive order declaring that children born to people who are in the United States illegally or temporarily are not American citizens.
The justices relied on a long-settled understanding of
the 14th Amendment
, adopted after the Civil War, and more recent federal laws in ruling that anyone born in the country, with very limited exceptions, is a citizen.
The Republican president’s restrictions had been blocked by several lower courts and had not taken effect anywhere in the U.S.
During arguments in April, both conservative and liberal justices questioned the order’s legality in a momentous case that was magnified by
Trump’s unprecedented attendance in the courtroom
.
The case framed another test of Trump’s assertions of executive power that defy long-standing precedent for a court with a conservative majority and a robust view of presidential power that has largely ruled in his favor. In the notable exceptions when the court has not, Trump has responded with starkly personal criticisms of t…

In a sharp rebuke to President Trump, the Supreme Court ruled Tuesday that the Constitution guarantees automatic birthright citizenship to virtually all children born in the United States.
Chief Justice John Roberts wrote the court's 6-3 opinion.
The decision firmly rejected the executive order that Trump issued on the first day of his second term. It sought to bar citizenship for babies born in the U.S. to parents who either entered the country illegally or who are living and working here legally with temporary visas. The executive order never went into effect because every lower court judge who reviewed it concluded, in the words of one judge, that it was "blatantly unconstitutional."
Trump has long maintained that the Constitution does not guarantee birthright citizenship. But as Chief Justice Roberts observed, the men who wrote the Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution…

“The Justices rightly recognized that the U.S. Constitution is clear and unambiguous: if you are born in this country and subject to its jurisdiction, you are a citizen of this country,” Krish O’Mara Vignarajah, the head of Global Refuge, a non-profit that works with immigrants, said in a statement. “Birthright citizenship survived the Chinese Exclusion Act, Jim Crow, and today, it survived an executive order that would have essentially turned the maternity ward into a customs checkpoint.”
“Today, the Supreme Court defended the soul of this country and the very definition of what it means to be an American,” Voto Latino President Maria Teresa Kumar said in a statement.
She added: “By reaffirming that every child born on American soil is a citizen, the court chose to embrace our multiracial and multicultural reality, rather than succumb to a politic…

WASHINGTON (AP) — A divided Supreme Court on Tuesday upheld a broad conception of birthright citizenship, rejecting President Donald Trump's executive order declaring that children born to people who are in the United States illegally or temporarily are not American citizens.
By a 6-3 vote, the court struck down Trump's order.

Supreme Court whiffs on birthright citizenship
Supreme Court whiffs on birthright citizenship
By
Andy Schlafly
July 2, 2026
The Supreme Court just blundered badly on birthright citizenship, undermining the
credibility of the Court
while devaluing American citizenship. By a mere 5-4 majority, the Court declared a new constitutional right to citizenship for millions of children of illegal aliens, tourists and those on worker visas, which was never intended by anyone who wrote the U.S. Constitution.
This decision suddenly grants a future
right to vote
to millions of
illegal aliens
, tilting the outcomes of elections away from the candidates preferred by native-born or naturalized American citizens. Chief Justice John Roberts, who is on the Court only because millions of illegal aliens were not allowed to vote in 2004, wrote a decision that hands the future of the United States over to the children of illegal aliens and other
foreign citizens
.
The notion that the 14th Amendment, which was ratified nearly 160 years ago in response to the Civil War, somehow requires this result is unfathomable. As Justice Thomas explained in his 91-page dissent, this is another judicial
distortion of the meaning
of a constitutional amendment whose p…

A divided US Supreme Court has upheld a broad conception of birthright citizenship, rejecting President Donald Trump's executive order declaring children born to people who are in the United States illegally or temporarily are not citizens.
The justices relied on a long-settled understanding of the 14th amendment, adopted after the Civil War, and more recent federal laws in ruling that anyone born in the United States, with very limited exceptions, is a citizen.
The 6-3rulingmarked the second time this year that the court has invalidated a major Trump initiative, following its February decision to strike down his global tariffs.
"Citizenship, then and now, was the right to have rights - to freely participate in our political community. The Framers of the Fourteenth Amendment extended that promise to 'every free-born person in this land'," Chief Justice John Roberts wrote for the court, citing congressional debate over the amendment, "We keep that promise today".

WASHINGTON (AP) —
The Supreme Court
on Tuesday upheld a broad conception of
birthright citizenship
, rejecting President Donald Trump’s executive order declaring that children born to people who are in the United States illegally or temporarily are not American citizens.
The justices relied on a long-settled understanding of
the 14th Amendment
, adopted after the Civil War, and more recent federal laws in ruling that anyone born in the country, with very limited exceptions, is a citizen.
The Republican president’s restrictions had been blocked by several lower courts and had not taken effect anywhere in the U.S.
During arguments in April, both conservative and liberal justices questioned the order’s legality in a momentous case that was magnified by
Trump’s unprecedented attendance in the courtroom
.
The case framed another test of Trump’s assertions of executive power that defy long-standing precedent for a court with a conservative majority and a robust view of presidential power that has largely ruled in his favor. In the notable exceptions when the court has not, Trump has responded with starkly personal criticisms of t…

PresidentDonald Trumphas urged Congress to take action following the Supreme Court's decision to uphold birthright citizenship, which invalidated an executive order aimed at restricting these protections.
Trumpasserted that children born to parents residing in the United States illegally or on a temporary basis do not qualify as American citizens.
"The Supreme Court upheld Birthright Citizenship, which is too bad for our Country, but we can easily make it up in Congress through Legislation, with the support of the President, that has now been determined during this process,” Trump stated on Truth Social soon after the Supreme Court's ruling.
He added, “No long and unwieldy Constitutional Amendment is necessary! Congress should start TODAY to work on ending expensive and unfair to our Country,BirthrightCitizenship. They will have my Complete and Total Support!”
In the court's view, Chief Justice Roberts stated that there is "scant evidence" supporting the Trump administration's "dramatically revisionist view" on the 14th Amendment and the restrictions regarding citizenship at birth.
