The Supreme Court reaffirmed that birthright citizenship is guaranteed under the Fourteenth Amendment, rejecting Trump’s bid to revoke citizenship documents for children born in the U.S.

Trump has asked the Supreme Court to rehear the birthright citizenship case, claiming the ruling is a miscarriage of justice and urging an immediate rehearing.

A separate ruling this week upheld that the administration’s birthright citizenship order cannot strip citizenship from children born in the U.S. under its jurisdiction, and the court’s decision was issued on the Friday following the June ruling.

Trump announced on Truth Social that he would seek an immediate rehearing of the birthright citizenship case.

In a separate matter, a Manhattan judge ordered Trump to pay about $5 million plus nearly $800,000 in interest to Carroll while he pursues Supreme Court reconsideration.

Trump also asked the Court to reconsider its denial of hearing his appeal in the E. Jean Carroll civil case, in which he was found liable for sexually abusing and defaming Carroll.

A Migration Policy Institute and Penn State study noted the order could leave roughly 255,000 infants per year without citizenship and could raise the undocumented population by about 2.7 million by 2045, signaling long-term social and economic impacts.

The administration’s immigration overhaul includes other moves, such as adjusting Temporary Protected Status and blocking asylum processing at the border, with the Court having sided with some measures previously.

Rehearing requests are rare, and the Court has not granted one after issuing a ruling in an argued case for decades.

Context: the birthright ruling came on June 29, 2026, with the rehearing request following shortly after, alongside related developments in the Carroll case and damages order.
