President Donald Trump ordered an end to birthright citizenship in January 2025, making the claim that the 14th Amendment does not apply to people whose parents entered the U.S. illegally. That order has been challenged in the courts and is now before the Supreme Court.
The court, which has a 6-3 conservative majority, appeared unlikely to side with Trump during oral arguments on April 1. Justices are expected to issue a ruling by the end of June.
