Rights groups sue Trump over birthright citizenship orders

Rights organizations, including the ACLU, filed a lawsuit Tuesday in New Hampshire federal court challenging President Trump's new executive orders restricting birthright citizenship. The orders expand exceptions to the 14th Amendment and target 'birth tourism,' despite a Supreme Court ruling in June that struck down a previous attempt. The groups argue the new measures violate the Constitution and prior rulings.
