Trump's birthright citizenship order remains blocked as lawsuits march on after Supreme Court ruling

A federal judge’s order blocking former President Donald Trump’s attempt to end birthright citizenship has taken effect. U.S. District Judge Joseph LaPlante in New Hampshire issued the ruling last week, and with no appeal filed, it is now enforceable nationwide. The order protects children of undocumented immigrants from losing citizenship. Meanwhile, a Boston judge heard arguments from states opposing Trump’s policy, calling it unconstitutional. The judge has not ruled yet but appears likely to side with the states. The issue could return to the Supreme Court, which has not ruled on the policy’s constitutionality. The Justice Department has not commented.
