New US birthright-citizenship rules create uncertainty for Indian families
Published
President Donald Trump signed revised rules restricting birthright citizenship after a Supreme Court setback to an earlier approach, according to the Indian Express. The measure may affect children born in the United States to some Indian nationals, although implementation and court challenges remain unsettled.
Why it matters
Citizenship at birth shapes children's legal status, family planning and immigration security. Litigation will decide whether the new rules can take effect under the Constitution.
