For the second time in as many months, President Trump has signed executive orders seeking to narrow birthright citizenship — a right woven into the Fourteenth Amendment for over 150 years.

At stake is not merely a legal doctrine but the question of who, by the simple fact of birth on American soil, belongs to the American story.
