President Donald Trump signs an executive order on birthright citizenship in the Oval Office of the White House in Washington, D.C., on Monday, Jan. 20, 2025.
U.S. District Judge John C. Coughenour said it boggles his mind that any attorney would argue that Trump’s executive order is constitutional. He ruled in the case brought by the states of Washington, Arizona, Illinois and Oregon, which argue the 14th Amendment and Supreme Court case law have cemented birthright citizenship.and a number of immigrants rights groups across the country. The suits include personal testimonies from attorneys general who are U.S.
Trump’s order asserts that the children of noncitizens are not subject to the jurisdiction of the United States, and orders federal agencies to not recognize citizenship for children who don’t have at least one parent who is a citizen. But some advocates of immigration restrictions have argued that case clearly applied to children born to parents who were both legal immigrants. They say it’s less clear whether it applies to children born to parents living in the country illegally.
One of the lawsuits aimed at blocking the executive order includes the case of a pregnant woman, identified as “Carmen,” who is not a citizen but has lived in the United States for more than 15 years and has a pending visa application that could lead to permanent residency status.
