The Supreme Court is set to hear arguments on the birthright citizenship issue, one of the key issues of President Donald Trump's second term. The president's executive order to limit birthright membership to individuals with at least one parent who is a U.S. citizen or permanent resident was immediately blocked by courts and has never taken effect.
