President-elect Donald Trump revealed during a recent interview on NBC's "Meet the Press" that he plans on ending birthright citizenship in the U.S., a right protected by the 14th Amendment of the Constitution. "We're going to have to get it changed", Trump said. "We'll maybe have to go back to the people. But we have to end it."
When pressed further, Trump went as far as to suggest he would do it through executive action and that he had originally sought to do so during his first term. "I was going to do it through executive action but then we had to fix Covid first, to be honest with you," Trump said. "We have to end it. It's ridiculous."
