Trump petitions Supreme Court to revisit birthright citizenship

Trump has announced he will ask the Supreme Court to rehear its June ruling that upheld birthright citizenship under the 14th Amendment, citing a Texas hospital advertising maternity services in Mexico on roadside billboards as fresh evidence of abuse. The move is a long shot — the Court rarely grants rehearings — but signals Trump intends to keep pressing the issue through every available channel.
