Supreme Court to Decide on Trump's Birthright Citizenship Policy
Update: 2025-12-05
Description
The Supreme Court is set to decide on a contentious policy from former President Trump: ending birthright citizenship for certain children born in the U.S. This challenges the interpretation of the Fourteenth Amendment. The court will review a lower courts rejection of Trumps claim that children of undocumented or temporary parents are not U.S. citizens. This case, along with others like tariffs and presidential agency firings, shapes Trumps policies and the balance of power. Despite favorable rulings for Trumps administration, lower courts have kept the birthright citizenship policy on hold. The conservative court, with three Trump appointees, may use this case to assert independence, as multiple federal courts have deemed the policy illegal. The case, Trump v. Barbara, will be argued next year, with a decision expected by summer.
