Trump to End Birthright Citizenship: Constitutional Crisis Looms
President Trump plans to issue a series of executive orders on his first day in office addressing immigration. Key actions include ending birthright citizenship for children of undocumented immigrants, despite potential legal challenges stemming from the 14th Amendment. Additionally, the orders will reinstate the “Remain in Mexico” policy, end “catch and release,” and declare a national emergency at the border, authorizing the deployment of armed forces for border wall construction. Further measures include suspending refugee resettlement, increasing migrant vetting, and designating certain criminal organizations as global terrorists.
