Judge blocks Trump's last attempt to limit birthright citizenship

RTP Notícias3 September 2026 at 06:50

A federal judge blocked on Wednesday President Trump's latest attempt to limit birthright citizenship, through an executive order aimed at combating "maternity tourism." The decision represents a new chapter in the legal battle over citizenship rights in the United States, where the Constitution guarantees citizenship to anyone born on American soil. The judge suspended the executive order that would have automatically affected children born in the U.S. to parents who are not citizens or legal residents. The Trump administration has attempted multiple times to restrict the right to birthright citizenship, but has faced consistent resistance from the courts.
