The Executive Order (EO) of President Donald Trump (EO) ended the birthright and faced another legal shock after a federal appeal court on Wednesday.
The 9th US Circuit Court of Appeal in San Francisco confirmed the EO’s decision to block the nationwide enforcement of the EO, which would deny citizenship to infants who illegally or temporarily in the US.
The three judges ruled in 2–1 votes against Trump’s plan, with the first time US District Judge John C. A decision was taken by Kafenor in Seattle.
“The district court correctly concluded that the proposed interpretation of the executive order, denying citizenship for many individuals born in the United States, is unconstitutional. We fully agree,” the majority wrote.

Although the Supreme Court has since been banned from issuing nationwide prohibitory orders to the lower courts, the majority in the 9th circuit ruled against the EO, as the case fell under an exception to open by Scots after the discovery of the case.
The states filed a case after arguing against the Trump administration that a nationwide order is required to block the EO to prevent problems arising from congenital citizenship in some states.
“We conclude that the district court has not misused its discretion in issuing a universal prohibition to give the states completely relieved,” the judges Michael Hawkins and Ronald Gold wrote, both were appointed by former President Bill Clinton.
Judge Patrick Bumtay, who appointed Trump, dissatisfied after deciding that the states do not have legal rights or are standing to prosecute the Trump administration on it.
He did not weigh the constitutionality of ending congenital citizenship.
