Additional Information: The case is one of multiple lawsuits filed by Democratic attorneys general and immigrant rights organizations challenging the order.
The “Protecting the Meaning and Value of American Citizenship” EO directs agencies not to recognize birthright citizenship for a child born in the U.S. if the father is not a citizen or green card holder and the mother is either in the U.S. unlawfully or in the U.S. lawfully but temporarily. The EO applies to births 30 days after publication.
