This paper analyzes one of the most significant Birthright Citizenship constitutional cases in the United States in recent years, stemming from President Donald Trump’s executive order seeking to restrict birthright citizenship for the children of certain immigrants. The article examines the interpretation of the Fourteenth Amendment, the main arguments presented before the Supreme Court, the scope of the precedent set in United States v. Wong Kim Ark, and the constitutional and immigration implications of the case. It also offers a comparative law perspective and reflects on the impact that a potential modification of the jus soli principle could have on international law and nationality systems.
