A federal judge in New Hampshire will hear arguments Thursday on a class-action lawsuit challenging President Donald Trump’s birthright citizenship restrictions. The lawsuit, filed by the American Civil Liberties Union on behalf of several parents and infants, seeks to block Trump’s January order denying citizenship to babies born to undocumented or temporary residents. Plaintiffs argue the order violates the 14th Amendment, which guarantees citizenship to those born in the U.S. and subject to its jurisdiction. Several federal judges have issued injunctions against the order, but the U.S. Supreme Court recently limited those rulings. Legal battles continue across multiple states.
