The nation's highest court has decided to hear lawsuit questioning birthright citizenship.
The US Supreme Court has decided to review a pivotal case that puts to the test a historic principle: automatic citizenship for individuals born in the United States.
On day one in office this winter, the administration signed an order aiming to halt birthright citizenship, but the action was subsequently blocked by lower courts after legal challenges were brought forward.
The Supreme Court's ultimate judgment will ultimately affirm citizenship rights for the infants of migrants who are in the US illegally or on non-immigrant visas, or it will nullify them completely.
Next, the judges will set a time to hear arguments between the federal government and claimants, which comprise parents who are immigrants and their infants.
The 14th Amendment
For over a century and a half, the 14th Amendment has enshrined the rule that anyone born in the nation is a American citizen, with specific conditions for children born to foreign diplomats and personnel of occupying armies.
"Every individual born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States."
The challenged presidential order sought to withhold citizenship to the offspring of people who are whether in the US without legal status or are in the country on non-permanent visas.
The United States is among about a minority of states – mostly in the North and South America – that provide immediate citizenship to anyone born on their soil.
