President Trump's push to end birthright citizenship, enshrined in the 14th Amendment, seeks to deny automatic citizenship to children born to undocumented immigrants, aiming to curb illegal immigration and birth tourism. This challenges the long-standing jus soli principle upheld by the Supreme Court. The debate centers on constitutional interpretation, sovereignty, and the well-being of affected children. Pro Perspective: Ending birthright citizenship is a necessary reform to discourage illegal immigration and birth tourism, reinforcing national sovereignty by ensuring citizenship is a deliberate choice, not an automatic outcome of birth in the U.S. Against Perspective: Ending birthright citizenship violates the 14th Amendment's guarantee and Supreme Court precedent, potentially creating stateless children and punishing them for their parents' status, while imposing significant bureaucratic burdens. -- Hosting provided by SoundOn
