"President Trump plans to attend a Supreme Court hearing on birthright citizenship, making him the first sitting president to participate in oral arguments at the court. His executive order limits citizenship for children born to undocumented parents, challenging the long-standing interpretation of the 14th Amendment."
"Trump's executive order, signed on the first day of his second term, declares that children born to parents who are in the United States illegally or temporarily are not American citizens, marking a significant shift from previous legal interpretations."
"While Trump had previously considered attending a Supreme Court hearing on tariffs but opted out, he expressed certainty about attending the upcoming birthright citizenship case, stating, 'I'm going,' when asked about his plans."
President Trump will attend a Supreme Court hearing regarding his executive order on birthright citizenship, which limits citizenship for children of undocumented parents. This order contradicts the 14th Amendment's long-standing interpretation. Trump previously expressed interest in attending a court hearing but refrained due to concerns about distraction. His attendance at this hearing is significant as it is the first time a sitting president has participated in oral arguments at the Supreme Court. Trump has appointed three justices currently serving on the court.
