Paul Kamenar from the National Legal and Policy Center discusses the legality of Trump's executive order aimed at ending birthright citizenship. This issue has sparked a whirlwind of lawsuits from various states and organizations, including the ACLU, challenging the constitutionality of such an action. Kamenar explains that the 14th Amendment grants citizenship to anyone born or naturalized in the United States, but Trump's order attempts to redefine who is considered 'subject to the jurisdiction' of the U.S. This has raised questions about the status of children born to undocumented immigrants and the concept of 'anchor babies.'
