He mentioned that despite previous attempts, the emergence of the COVID-19 epidemic forced him to give priority to other issues.

Trump thinks this practice is "absurd" and plans to end it. The "birth citizenship" in the United States is based on the 14th Amendment to the Constitution in 1868, which stipulates that anyone born in the United States and subject to its jurisdiction is an American citizen.

This principle was supported by the Supreme Court in the case of Golden Virtue in 1898. Trump has always opposed this legislation, and plans to prevent the so-called "maternity travel to the United States" through administrative orders or institutional rulemaking procedures, that is, pregnant women go to the United States to give birth to their children in order to automatically obtain US citizenship.
