Birthright Citizenship in the Crosshairs: Supreme Court Could Leave Some US‑Born Kids Stateless

The Supreme Court will hear the Trump administration’s bid to reinterpret birthright citizenship under the 14th Amendment. If approved, children born to legally present immigrants could lose automatic US citizenship, potentially leaving millions stateless; the article follows anonymous plaintiffs and immigrant families who fear losing a sense of belonging, while the government argues the clause excludes those not fully under US jurisdiction.

Senators press DHS to reverse deportation of California DACA recipient

Senators Padilla and Durbin urged DHS to return Maria de Jesus Estrada Juarez, a California woman with active DACA who was deported a day after her green-card interview, arguing her protected status should have shielded her. DHS says she had a 1998 deportation order and could be removed for various reasons, while advocates contend she was never properly deported and highlight data inconsistencies. The case highlights ongoing debates over DACA protections and DHS transparency.

DHS records reveal 261 DACA recipients arrested in 2025 crackdown, 241 with criminal histories

CBS News reports a DHS letter to Congress showing ICE arrested 261 DACA recipients from Jan. 1 to Nov. 19, 2025 (the end of Biden’s term overlapped with most of the Trump crackdown), with 241 (about 92%) having criminal histories outside civil immigration violations and 86 deported; DHS didn’t specify the severity of the records. Democrats Durbin, Padilla, and Kelly called the figures troubling and asked for more detail on charges. The report notes about 516,000 Dreamers were enrolled in DACA by mid-2025 and underscores that DACA remains legally unsettled amid ongoing court battles and policy reversals by successive administrations.

Trump's Deportation Plans Spark Economic and Social Concerns

The incoming Trump administration poses a threat to immigrants in the U.S. with humanitarian or temporary legal status, potentially rendering them undocumented. Programs like Temporary Protected Status (TPS) and Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) are at risk, affecting over 1.5 million people. TPS, which protects nationals from countries experiencing crises, and DACA, which shields 'Dreamers,' face potential termination. The Biden administration's parole programs for migrants from countries like Cuba and Venezuela are also vulnerable. The uncertainty surrounding these programs is causing anxiety among immigrant communities.
