A federal judge in Seattle, John Coughenour, has temporarily blocked President Donald Trump’s executive order ending birthright citizenship, labeling it “blatantly unconstitutional.” The block will remain in effect for 14 days, as lawsuits from at least two dozen Democratic states opposing the order are set to begin in February. Trump’s executive order aims to revise the 14th Amendment, restricting citizenship to babies with at least one U.S. citizen parent.
