Trump Administration Issues New Executive Orders on Birth Tourism and Birthright Citizenship
President Trump signed two executive orders in August 2026 targeting birth tourism and restricting birthright citizenship through visa enforcement and citizenship recognition policies. Following a Supreme Court decision that rejected broader citizenship restrictions, the new orders take a narrower approach focused on visa denials for suspected birth tourism and non-recognition of citizenship in specific commercial and "alien enemy" situations. The orders are expected to prompt significant visa and immigration enforcement changes and likely face additional legal challenges.
