New Study Links Birthright Citizenship to Lower Crime Rates as Trump Defends Executive Order

As the Supreme Court reviews President Trump's executive order, a new immigration study suggests that birthright citizenship helps reduce crime. Supporters of the order argue the legal fight is rooted in history and necessary for the country. However, the President's recent criticism of the court has raised questions about whether he should expect loyalty from the judges he appointed. These debates occur as Congress considers the Birthright Citizenship Act of 2025. That bill would limit automatic citizenship to children of U.S. citizens, lawful permanent residents, or certain military members.
