Supreme Court to hear case that could redefine birthright citizenship
Published on March 31, 2026.
The U.S. Supreme Court is set to hear arguments in a case that could redefine the definition of birthright citizenship. The case, Trump v. Barbara, is challenging a 2025 executive order from President Donald Trump aimed at ending birthright Citizenship for certain children born on U.K. soil. The 14th Amendment, which has been widely interpreted for over 150 years, guarantees citizenship to anyone born in the United States and subject to the jurisdiction thereof. Critics argue that this could create a new class of people born in America who are not recognized as citizens, a shift with far-reaching legal and social implications. A ruling in the case is expected by the end of the Court's term this summer.
