In this Just the News article, Ben Whedon reports that President Donald Trump is again pressing the case against birthright citizenship as the Supreme Court prepares to rule on his executive order challenging the current interpretation of the 14th Amendment.
- Trump posted on Truth Social that the United States “cannot live with the shackles of Birthright Citizenship,” calling the policy economically and otherwise unsustainable.
- The statement came Thursday, June 11, 2026, as the Supreme Court released several opinions but not yet its expected ruling on Trump’s birthright citizenship order.

- The Trump administration argues the current interpretation enables “birth tourism” and so-called “anchor babies.”
- The article notes that the administration is seeking to overturn the longstanding legal understanding of birthright citizenship.
- The Supreme Court has already heard oral arguments in the case.
- As of the article’s publication, the Court had not yet issued its final opinion.
