This is a symbolic show of support that does not change the law. While it might pass the House if his party is in charge, it will not change the Supreme Court's actual decision.

The resolution backs an effort to get the Supreme Court to reverse a ruling that said children born in the U.S. to undocumented parents are automatically citizens. If a rehearing succeeds, it could revive Executive Order 14160 and end birthright citizenship for these children, though rehearings are rarely granted and this resolution itself changes no law.
“directing Federal agencies not to recognize automatic citizenship for children born in the United States to parents who are unlawfully present in the United States or whose presence in the United States, while lawful, is temporary”
Referred to the House Committee on the Judiciary.
Submitted in House
H. Res. 1434, a resolution supporting the efforts of the Trump Administration to obtain a rehearing of the decision of the Supreme Court in Trump v. Barbara, was introduced in the House. The resolution cites concerns about commercial 'birth tourism' schemes at the border.
Top Republicans in Washington fumed after the Supreme Court struck down a presidential order to ban birthright citizenship. Speaker Mike Johnson said 'birthing tourism' is a trend that has been abused, while Democrats hailed the 6-3 ruling as a victory for constitutional protections.
