Federal Judge Temporarily Blocks Trump Birthright Citizenship Order Nationwide
A federal judge in New Hampshire, Joseph N. Laplante, temporarily blocked President Trump's executive order ending birthright citizenship, a significant legal setback for the administration's immigration agenda. The ruling grants nationwide class-action status to all children born in the U.S. after February 20, 2025, to undocumented parents and halts enforcement of the order for seven days pending appeal. This decision follows a Supreme Court ruling that limited nationwide injunctions but allowed for class-action lawsuits representing all affected newborns. Judge Laplante emphasized the irreparable harm caused by stripping citizenship, calling it "the greatest privilege that exists in the world." The Trump administration argues the order aligns with the 14th Amendment, but critics warn it could render thousands of children stateless. The injunction delays the order's implementation, which had been set to take effect on July 27, 2025, and sets the stage for further legal challenges.
