Federal Judge Halts Trump Administration's New Birthright Citizenship Curbs

A federal judge in Maryland has issued a preliminary injunction, blocking the Trump administration's latest executive order that sought to impose new limits on automatic birthright citizenship. The order aimed to expand categories of noncitizen parents whose children would be ineligible for citizenship, including those involved in 'commercial transactions' to give birth in the U.S. This ruling marks a fresh setback for the administration's immigration agenda and is expected to send the legal battle back to the Supreme Court.
