US Supreme Court Overturns Trump's Executive Order on Birthright Citizenship

The United States Supreme Court annulled the executive order issued by President Donald Trump that sought to end the granting of citizenship based on birthright, reaffirming a principle established over a century ago that nearly everyone born within the United States is considered a citizen.

The ruling, delivered on Tuesday amid divided opinions in the case titled "Trump v. Barbara," declared Trump's policy unlawful, as reported by the American network CBS News.

This decision represents the Supreme Court's second major reversal of a key initiative from Trump's second term. It follows a previous ruling issued in February, which annulled several tariffs that Trump had imposed.

President Trump had signed the directive aiming to restrict birthright citizenship on his first day back in the White House, as part of a broad campaign to tighten immigration policies.
