The U.S. Supreme Court has blocked a directive by Donald Trump to end citizenship granted by birth.

Under the decision, birthright citizenship for children born in the United States remains unchanged, including the children of undocumented immigrants and people holding certain temporary visas.

The ruling has stopped one of the most controversial efforts by the Trump administration to restrict the right to citizenship in the United States.

As a result, the legal status of birthright citizenship in the U.S. remains as it was for now.
