Many in the US courts have challenged the controversial executive order of US President Donald Trump ending birthright citizenship. The US President once again spoke about the order and this time he says the provision is not a blanket opportunity for people worldwide to claim US citizenship.
“Birthright citizenship was, if you look back when this was passed and made, that was meant for the children of slaves. This was not meant for the whole world to come in and pile into the United States of America. Everybody coming in, and totally unqualified people with perhaps unqualified children. This wasn’t meant for that,” Trump said.
Trump reiterated that he is in favor of Birthright citizenship 100 percent, ‘But it wasn’t meant for the entire world to occupy the United States.’
The proposed legislation, titled the Birthright Citizenship Act of 2025, aims to restrict birthright citizenship to children born to illegal immigrants and non-immigrants on temporary visas. The senators argue that the current policy is a significant draw for illegal immigration and poses a threat to national security.
However, Donald Trump is confident that the Supreme Court will ultimately rule in his favor.
