Trump birthright citizenship ban gets legal support from House Republicans | National
SUMMARY: A coalition of House Republicans has filed two amicus briefs backing President Trump’s executive order to end birthright citizenship for children of illegal immigrants. They urge federal courts in Washington and Massachusetts to deny requests for a preliminary injunction against the order, which Democratic state attorneys general claim is unconstitutional. The lawmakers, led by Jim Jordan, argue that the 14th Amendment pertains only to American citizens and freed slaves, not to illegal immigrants. They assert that “jurisdiction” refers to national allegiance, not just territory. Seventeen representatives joined in the effort, criticizing the misuse of birthright citizenship.
