Supreme Court hears challenge to Trump order ending birthright citizenship
The Supreme Court on Wednesday heard arguments over President Trump’s executive order seeking to end birthright citizenship for children born in the U.S. to parents who are in the country illegally or on temporary visas. ACLU attorney Cecilia Wang, who argued the case, said the order is unconstitutional and violates the 14th Amendment. President Trump attended part of the session — a rare move for a sitting president — and later posted about the case. The challenge marks the first major test of the executive order signed on the first day of his second term.
