A federal appeals court ruled President Donald Trump's executive order to end birthright citizenship unconstitutional, affirming a lower court's decision. The 9th Circuit Court of Appeals blocked the nationwide enforcement of the EO, which aimed to deny citizenship to babies born to people illegally or temporarily in the U.S. The court's 2-1 vote upheld the initial ruling by U.S. District Judge John C. Coughenour in Seattle. The Supreme Court's restriction on nationwide injunctions did not apply in this case, as the majority found an exception that allowed the ruling against the EO. The Trump administration is facing multiple lawsuits challenging the order.
