18 U.S. States File Lawsuit Against Trump's Birthright Citizenship Ban

President Trump's executive order to end birthright citizenship faces legal challenges for alleged constitutional violations.

• President Donald Trump signed an executive order to end automatic U.S. citizenship for those born on U.S. soil, a right established in the 14th Amendment.
• Eighteen states, including California and New York, have filed lawsuits in federal court, arguing the order is unconstitutional and violates long-standing legal precedents.
• Civil rights groups, such as the ACLU, have also joined the legal battle, condemning the measure as a rejection of American values and constitutional protections.
• The executive order could take effect 30 days after signing, but legal challenges may delay or prevent its implementation.
• Trump's administration has also lifted restrictions on immigration arrests at sensitive locations like schools and churches, reversing policies from previous administrations.
