The Supreme Court has upheld birthright citizenship under the Constitution, firmly rejecting an executive order issued by President Trump on his first day back in office. The decision reaffirms the principle enshrined in the Fourteenth Amendment that citizenship is granted to those born in the United States regardless of their parents' immigration status. According to NPR, the ruling marks a significant constitutional victory for the legal foundations of American citizenship law.
