Supreme Court 'Originalists' Split on Birthright Citizenship

The Supreme Court ruled 5-4 that birthright citizenship, as defined by the 14th Amendment, is rooted in its original text and history, rejecting efforts to limit it through executive action. The majority upheld the principle that children born on U.S. soil are citizens, affirming Congress's authority to enact legislation regarding exceptions. Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito dissented, arguing the amendment's intent and application should be reconsidered, particularly concerning children of temporary visitors. The decision emphasizes a strict interpretation of the Constitution’s original meaning regarding citizenship.
