Federal Judge Blocks Trump's Second Birthright Citizenship Executive Order, Setting Stage for Supreme Court Appeal

A U.S. District Judge has issued a preliminary injunction, ruling President Trump's August executive order limiting birthright citizenship "almost certainly unconstitutional." This marks the second time a federal court has blocked such an order from the Trump administration. The Justice Department is expected to appeal the decision to the Supreme Court, which previously struck down Trump's first birthright citizenship order in June, though it left the core constitutional question formally unresolved.
