Federal Judge in New Hampshire USA on Thursday It has suspended the validity of the Executive Order of President Donald Trump, which limits the right to automatically acquire citizenship of the United States for children of illegal migrants born in the Union.

However, the Supreme Court left the possibility of the federal judges to block government regulations if a mass action is brought against them. It was this possibility that the opponents also used in this case.
Judge Joseph Laplante awarded the status of a participant of a mass law action to every child who could lose the right to obtain US citizenship by Trump’s executive order by born in their territory. This decision will come into effect up to seven days, so the judge wants to enable Trump’s administration to file an appeal.
The old -new US president is trying to achieve that all children born after February 19, whose parents are not citizens or persons with a legal permanent residence in the US, are subject to deportation. According to his yield, they would also not be able to gain social security, various state benefits and the ability to work legally when they reach a higher age.
Trump refers to 14. Amendment to the US Constitution, which was adopted after the US civil war as part of the effort to ensure the rights of former slaves and their children. Among other things, it says that “All persons born or naturalized in the United States and subject to jurisdiction are the citizens of the United States and the State in which they reside.”
