Trump signs orders to limit US birthright citizenship, despite Supreme Court ruling

US President Donald Trump signed two executive orders aimed at restricting birthright citizenship, despite a June 30 Supreme Court ruling that invalidated his prior attempt. The orders target 'birth tourism', pregnant foreigners traveling to the US to give birth, and seek to redefine historical exceptions to citizenship at birth. While the Supreme Court ruled the previous order unconstitutional, Trump argued the new directive falls outside that ruling by focusing on narrow interpretations. Legal experts and immigrant advocates criticized the move as an attempt to bypass the court's decision, with some calling it doomed to fail. The orders also limit rights for children of foreign government employees and individuals classified as alien enemies, potentially affecting those born in US territories if Congress passes related legislation.
