💨 Abstract

The article discusses the uncertainty faced by Barbara, a Cuban emigré in Kentucky, who is 30 weeks into a high-risk pregnancy. She fears her unborn child might not gain U.S. citizenship due to an executive order by President Trump that aims to deny citizenship to children born in the U.S. to undocumented or temporary residents. Lower courts have blocked this order, but the Supreme Court is considering limiting these protections, potentially affecting children born in states like Kentucky.
