Democratic States Sue Trump Over Birthright Citizenship Plan
More than a dozen Democratic states are taking legal action against President Donald Trump’s attempt to end birthright citizenship. The lawsuit, filed Tuesday, claims Trump’s executive order steps far beyond presidential authority and directly violates the U.S. Constitution. At the heart of the issue is the Fourteenth Amendment, which guarantees citizenship to anyone born on U.S. soil. The state attorneys general argue that Trump’s order, signed just a day earlier, illegally tries to bypass this long-standing constitutional right. Legal experts suggest this could be one of the most significant constitutional challenges to the Trump administration’s policies. The argument centers on whether the President has the power to alter citizenship rules without Congress’s involvement. As the case unfolds, it’s expected to spark intense debates over immigration, constitutional law, and the limits of presidential authority. Stay tuned for updates as this story develops. This is a breaking news story and will be updated with new information.
