Federal district court judge temporarily blocks Trump's birthright citizenship order

Story by Daniel Barnes (23 Jan 2025)

SEATTLE — A federal district court judge on Thursday temporarily blocked President Donald Trump's executive order aimed at limiting birthright citizenship — the first skirmish in what promises to be a protracted legal battle over the new administration's agenda.

Senior U.S. District Judge John C. Coughenour heard 25 minutes of arguments and then issued an order from the bench blocking the policy from taking effect for 14 days. There will be a further briefing on a preliminary injunction to permanently block the executive order while the case proceeds.

"I've been on the bench for over four decades," Coughenour, a Ronald Reagan appointee, said. "I can't remember another case where the question presented is as clear as this one. This is a blatantly unconstitutional order."

The Constitution's 14th Amendment has long been understood to grant automatic citizenship to anyone born on U.S. soil except the children of foreign diplomats. An answer to the U.S. Supreme Court's 1857 Dred Scott decision, which held that people descended from slaves were not citizens, the amendment begins with the sentence: "All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside."
