What happened
President Trump signed two executive orders Thursday seeking to narrow birthright citizenship after the Supreme Court rejected his earlier attempt in June. The first order targets birth tourism by directing crackdowns on businesses that help pregnant foreign nationals enter the U.S. so their children obtain citizenship at birth. The second tells agencies to deny automatic citizenship to children born to certain foreign diplomatic staff, alien enemies, members of foreign terrorist organizations and other noncitizens the administration says are ineligible.
