Trump signs two orders to narrow birthright citizenship after Supreme Court setback

TL;DR Summary
President Trump signed two executive orders aimed at narrowing birthright citizenship after the Supreme Court rejected his bid to end it outright. One order tightens scrutiny of birth tourism and surrogacy to deter foreign birthright claims, directing DHS and the State Department to deny visas and related benefits. The other narrows which children born in the U.S. qualify for citizenship, listing categories where birthright status would not apply. Legal challenges are expected, with critics arguing the moves bypass the Constitution and Supreme Court precedent, while supporters say they close loopholes and protect the 14th Amendment.
