💨 Abstract

A federal judge in Maryland challenged the Trump administration on its plans to enforce an executive order that seeks to end birthright citizenship. The judge has instructed the Justice Department to clarify its plans, asking if they will attempt to deport U.S.-born children of undocumented immigrants. The Department asserted that it has no such plans, but acknowledged working on implementation guidelines. Plaintiffs' attorneys expressed concerns about potential enforcement and the anxiety experienced by those affected.
