> Donald Trump is making another attempt to restrict birthright citizenship after his first effort was overturned by the Supreme Court. His new executive orders also target so-called birth tourism, in which pregnant women travel to the United States to give birth so their children can obtain US citizenship. The measures raise constitutional questions, including how the 14th Amendment applies and whether the court could side with Trump.
