Supreme Court to hear Trumps citizenship order in high-profile oral arguments

April 1, 2026 • Google News World

The Supreme Court has begun oral arguments on a high-profile case involving President Donald Trump’s executive order aimed at limiting birthright citizenship. The court heard from the president himself, who attended the hearing for the first time in his presidency.

The case centers around Trump’s 2019 executive order, which sought to limit the automatic citizenship granted to children born in the United States to parents who are not U.S. citizens. The order was challenged by several states and advocacy groups, arguing that it was unconstitutional and would harm certain communities.

During the oral arguments, the court heard from lawyers representing both sides of the case. The court’s questions were focused on the constitutionality of Trump’s executive order and its potential impact on the country.

The Supreme Court has not yet issued a decision in the case.
