Donald Trump signs two executive orders to restrict birthright citizenship, expanding ineligibility categories and targeting 'birth tourism', despite likely legal challenges and a recent Supreme Court ruling upholding constitutional guarantees.
Donald Trump is urging the Supreme Court to review its birthright citizenship ruling, citing billboards in Mexico advertising birthing services. The court previously rejected his attempt to restrict citizenship for children born in the US to non-citizens.
President Trump announced he will ask the Supreme Court to rehear a case challenging his executive order on birthright citizenship, calling the court's rejection a "miscarriage of justice". The Supreme Court previously ruled Trump's directive violated the 14th Amendment.
The US Supreme Court has upheld birthright citizenship, ruling that the 14th Amendment guarantees citizenship to nearly all children born in the country. This decision strikes down President Trump's executive order attempting to end the practice.
The US Supreme Court affirmed birthright citizenship, ruling that nearly all individuals born on US soil are citizens, thereby rejecting a key element of Donald Trump's anti-immigrant agenda.

The US Supreme Court upheld the FCC's system for levying fines against wireless carriers AT&T and Verizon. The 8-1 ruling rejected the companies' argument that the agency's in-house proceedings violated their right to a jury trial.
