President Trump signed two executive orders on August 6 targeting birthright citizenship and birth tourism, a narrower second attempt after the Supreme Court struck down his broader first order in June.

President Trump signed two executive orders on August 6 targeting birthright citizenship and birth tourism, a narrower second attempt after the Supreme Court struck down his broader first order in June. The new orders zero in on specific categories of people the administration says should not receive automatic U.S. citizenship simply because they were born on American soil. One order restricts birthright citizenship for children born to adults connected to foreign embassies, members of foreign terrorist organizations, individuals who lobby on behalf of foreign governments, and anyone classified as an "alien enemy" of the United States. It also targets parents who "engaged in fraudulent activity to obtain citizenship." A second order…Open

President Trump signed two executive orders Thursday targeting birth tourism and expanding the categories of people ineligible for automatic birthright citizenship, a direct response to the Supreme Court's June ruling that blocked his earlier, broader attempt.

President Trump signed two executive orders Thursday targeting birth tourism and expanding the categories of people ineligible for automatic birthright citizenship, a direct response to the Supreme Court's June ruling that blocked his earlier, broader attempt. The orders represent the administration's sharpest move yet on an issue that has defined Trump's immigration agenda since his first days in office. The first order identifies specific groups whose children born on U.S. soil would no longer qualify for automatic citizenship, including children of designated alien enemies, members of foreign terrorist organizations, and individuals who lobby or act on behalf of foreign governments. The second order formally bans birth tourism by…Open

The ACLU has jumped into a federal lawsuit over biological males in girls' restrooms at a rural Wisconsin school district, filing a friend-of-the-court brief that dismisses the Supreme Court's recent ruling against males in girls' sports as irrelevant. The civil liberties organization submitted a revised amicus brief on behalf of the Gay Straight Alliance for Safe Schools, or GSAFE, in the case against the New Richmond School District, a lawsuit brought by the Wisconsin Institute for Law and Liberty on behalf of parents and female students who say the district's bathroom policy violates Title IX. The ACLU's central argument: the Supreme Court's June 30 decision in B.P.J., which upheld state bans on biological males in women's sports ,…Open

AXIOS (Russell Contreras) - Trump's deportation push is rewiring American policing, ACLU report says

President Trump 's deportation campaign has expanded far beyond ICE, turning federal agents, state troopers, local police and even wildlife officers into a massive 50,000-person internal enforcement force, a new ACLU report says. Why it matters: The aggressive expansion is blurring the lines between local public safety and federal immigration enforcement, fundamentally changing U.S. law enforcement — and raising civil rights concerns, the report says. The big picture: Neighborhood streets, roads, schools, worksites, hospitals, courts and wildlife areas have turned into enforcement zones, officials say. - That blurring of enforcement lines often has made it harder for people to know who's stopping them, what authority they have and who…
