U.S. President Donald Trump has signed two executive orders seeking to further restrict birthright citizenship, reviving an immigration policy that was previously rejected by the Supreme Court.⁣ ⁣ The orders target what the White House calls “birth tourism” and attempt to narrow who qualifies for automatic citizenship at birth in the United States.⁣ ⁣ Trump’s earlier attempt to change birthright citizenship was struck down by the Supreme Court in June, with justices ruling that the measure was unconstitutional.⁣ ⁣ Following that decision, Trump urged Congress to act, but instead moved ahead with new executive orders that set government policy rather than create new laws.⁣ ⁣ The administration argues the latest measures are different from the previous order, saying they focus on historical exceptions to citizenship rules.⁣ ⁣ #DonaldTrump #USA #Immigration #BirthrightCitizenship #WhiteHouse #Politics #CGTN
