Trump's executive order on birthright citizenship would affect 2 members of NH Indonesian Community Support, who are expecting a child in February.

Put simply, under Trump’s order, the children of most undocumented immigrants wouldn’t be US citizens, nor would the children of people in the country on student, work, or tourist visas. This is more than a reinterpretation of the 14th Amendment — it’s an attempt to do away with the jus soli principle that undergirds US citizenship.

Eighteen states and the ACLU filed lawsuits seeking to prevent President Trump from denying citizenship to children born in the U.S. to non-citizens.
