Trump challenges birthright citizenship in the US: what will happen now.

The administration of US President Donald Trump has appealed to the Supreme Court asking it to review the constitutionality of the order to abolish automatic citizenship by birthright. This was reported by Glavkom, referring to CNN.

Arguments for reviewing the decision

According to inkorr.com: Solicitor General John Sauer noted that the ruling of the lower court, which halted the president's order, negatively affects the safety of American borders and undermines the foundations of the administration's policy. He emphasized that courts 'without legal grounds are granting American citizenship to hundreds of thousands of people who have no right to it.'

Historical context

The Trump administration also believes that there was an error in the interpretation of the historical Supreme Court decision in the case of 'US vs. Wong Kim Ark' in 1898, which confirmed the right to citizenship for those born in the US. In their view, this decision concerned only the children of immigrants who had 'permanent residence' in the country, and not everyone born on US territory.

Contents of the order

The order, signed by Trump in January titled 'Protecting the meaning and value of American citizenship', prohibits granting citizenship to children whose parents were in the US illegally or on temporary visas at the time of birth.

Conclusion: The Trump administration has appealed to the Supreme Court requesting to review the constitutionality of its order that abolishes automatic citizenship by birthright. They argue that the ruling of the lower court violates border security and contradicts the foundations of their policy, emphasizing the importance of this issue for the country.
