This bill would block federal agencies from spending money to enforce Executive Order 14160, a January 2025 order that directed agencies to stop recognizing citizenship for certain children born on U.S. soil. The bill's sponsors say birthright citizenship is protected by the 14th Amendment and has been upheld by the Supreme Court.
This bill would affect children born in the United States to parents who are undocumented immigrants or who are in the country on temporary visas, as those are the children the executive order targeted.
Without this bill, federal agencies could continue acting on the executive order and decline to recognize the citizenship of some U.S.-born children. With this bill in place, agencies could not use funds to carry out that policy.
