EO 14418Trump

Continuing To Protect the Meaning and Value of American Citizenship

This executive order narrows birthright citizenship by directing federal agencies to deny citizenship recognition to certain categories of children born in the U.S. when neither parent is a citizen, including children of designated terrorists, foreign government employees, those born via birth tourism or surrogacy arrangements, and those born in territories without statutory citizenship provisions. It cites a June 2026 Supreme Court decision (Trump v. Barbara) as legal foundation and requires agency heads to issue public implementation guidance within 30 days.
