Trump Asks Supreme Court To Uphold Restrictions He Wants To Impose On Birthright Citizenship

Sep 27, 2025, 09:02 AM EDT

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump ’s administration is asking the Supreme Court to uphold his birthright citizenship order declaring that children born to parents who are in the United States illegally or temporarily are not American citizens.

The appeal, shared with The Associated Press on Saturday, sets in motion a process at the high court that could lead to a definitive ruling from the justices by early summer on whether the citizenship restrictions are constitutional.

Lower-court judges have so far blocked them from taking effect anywhere. The Republican administration is not asking the court to let the restrictions take effect before it rules.

The Justice Department’s petition has been shared with lawyers for parties challenging the order, but is not yet docketed at the Supreme Court.

Filled with ugly selfish racists. I share none of these people's value and I'm proud of the fact.

Trump and Putin hold the records of who the customers were and probably the names and pictures of the children servicing the businessmen.

Read the executive order. It only applies to children born more than 30 days after the executive order was signed.
