TL;DR Summary

A federal judge blocked Trump's order to end birthright citizenship for children of parents in the U.S. illegally, marking the third nationwide court ruling against it since a Supreme Court decision limited the power of lower courts to issue such injunctions. The case centers on the interpretation of the 14th Amendment, with the administration arguing children of noncitizens are not subject to U.S. jurisdiction, while opponents emphasize the constitutional guarantee of citizenship for those born in the U.S. The ruling remains in effect unless overturned by the Supreme Court.
