Barbara<\/i>, rightfully rejected his administration\u2019s attempt to alter the protections of the 14<sup>th<\/sup> amendment of the U.S. Constitution. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"><span style=\"font-family: Aptos,sans-serif;\">The Immigrant Legal Resource Center (ILRC) said no executive order issued by this lawless administration can change the 14<sup>th<\/sup> amendment\u2019s meaning and application and will no doubt fail, yet again, in any legal setting. Birthright citizenship guarantees that anyone born in the U.S. is a US citizen and is treated equally under the law.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"><span style=\"font-family: Aptos,sans-serif;\">The executive orders highlight the administration\u2019s blatant xenophobia. The orders attempt to create limitations to constitutionally-protected birthright citizenship based on vague, undefined and overbroad categories, which if ever allowed to go into effect would disproportionately impact pregnant women and women of reproductive age, as well as children of those the administration deems \u201calien enemies.\u201d&nbsp; <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"><span style=\"font-family: Aptos,sans-serif;\">The Trump administration has apparently forgotten what Chief Justice John Roberts wrote in the majority opinion issued last month: \u201cCitizenship, then and now, was the right to have rights \u2014 to freely participate in our political community.
