If the Supreme Court were to uphold President Donald Trump’s birthright citizenship executive order, it could render thousands of children stateless and force any parent to prove their citizenship to ensure their child has access to healthcare, social services, education and other basic social services.
On Wednesday, Trump was in attendance as the Supreme Court heard arguments on whether his order to revoke birthright citizenship is constitutional. Typically, anyone born in the U.S., no matter their parents' legal status, has been granted citizenship. Trump is looking to end that policy.
