Trump Signs New Executive Actions Targeting Birthright Citizenship and Birth Tourism

President Trump signed two executive actions on August 6, 2026, one limiting birthright citizenship and another curbing birth tourism by tightening visa rules for visitors seeking to give birth in the U.S. The move revives an effort the Supreme Court struck down in June 2026 by a 6-3 vote. Trump said he believed the actions are constitutional but provided no details, NPR reported.
