President Trump announces he will ask the Supreme Court to rehear its decision on birthright citizenship.
On July 8, 2026, President Donald Trump stated he would petition the Supreme Court to rehear its recent 5-4 decision that struck down his executive order restricting birthright citizenship. The Court's June ruling held that the 14th Amendment guarantees citizenship to children born on U.S. soil regardless of their parents' immigration status. Supreme Court rehearings are exceedingly rare, with the last granted in 1965.
