Judge Blocks Trump's Executive Order Narrowing Birthright Citizenship

U.S. District Judge Deborah Boardman temporarily blocked Trump's latest executive order aimed at limiting birthright citizenship, citing its likely unconstitutionality under the 14th Amendment.
The ruling applies to a certified class of legal challengers and prevents enforcement of the order, which sought to deny citizenship to children of 'alien enemies' and those involved in 'birth tourism.'
Judge Boardman emphasized that the Supreme Court's previous ruling against a similar order remains 'the law of the land,' reinforcing that children in the certified class are citizens at birth.
