A federal judge Wednesday blocked President Donald Trump\u2019s latest attempt to restrict birthright citizenship, ruling that the administration\u2019s new policy is likely unconstitutional.<\/p>\n

U.S. District Judge Deborah Boardman, a Biden appointee, issued a preliminary injunction preventing enforcement of Trump\u2019s latest executive order against a class represented by two immigration advocacy groups.<\/p>\n

The order seeks to deny automatic citizenship to additional categories of children born in the United States, including children of \u201calien enemies of the United States,\u201d members of foreign terrorist organizations and certain people who lobby or act on behalf of foreign governments.<\/p>\n

Boardman concluded in that the new directive was \u201calmost certainly unconstitutional as applied to the certified class.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThis Court must, once again, preliminarily enjoin enforcement of the President\u2019s most recent attempt to strip the right to citizenship from them,\u201d Boardman wrote.<\/p>\n

The ruling marks another setback for Trump\u2019s effort to narrow the government\u2019s interpretation of the 14th Amendment\u2019s Citizenship Clause.<\/p>\n

The Supreme Court previously ruled against the administration\u2019s initial attempt to restrict birthright citizenship. Trump\u2019s latest order sought to address additional categories of foreign nationals while continuing the administration\u2019s challenge to the longstanding interpretation that nearly everyone born on U.S. soil automatically becomes an American citizen.<\/p>\n

The administration\u2019s immigration efforts have also targeted so-called birth tourism.<\/p>\n

Trump signed a separate executive order last month directing the State Department to develop additional rules and guidance aimed at preventing foreigners from traveling to the United States for the purpose of giving birth and obtaining U.S. citizenship for their children.<\/p>\n

Federal visa rules already prohibit issuing certain tourist visas when officials determine that an applicant\u2019s primary purpose for traveling to the United States is giving birth so the child obtains citizenship.<\/p>\n
