Judge blocks Trump’s bid to limit birthright citizenship
A federal judge from Maryland, Deborah Boardman, has blocked the enforcement of a decree issued by former President Donald Trump aimed at restricting the right of children born in the United States to undocumented parents or those holding temporary visas from automatically obtaining American citizenship. This decision came after the Supreme Court rejected Trump's appeal in June last year regarding the principle of birthright citizenship, marking a setback for Trump's efforts to curb immigration. The decree is part of a broader Trump campaign to end the "birth tourism" system, which seeks to reduce illegal immigration. According to the judge's 35-page ruling, the decree is unconstitutional.
