💨 Abstract

A federal judge in Seattle blocked President Donald Trump's executive order curtailing birthright citizenship, deeming it "blatantly unconstitutional." The order, signed on Monday, aimed to deny citizenship to children born in the U.S. if neither parent was a U.S. citizen or legal permanent resident. Four Democratic-led states filed a lawsuit arguing that the order violates the 14th Amendment's citizenship clause.
