This bill, known as the "Born in the USA Act of 2025," aims to prohibit the use of Federal funds for carrying out Executive Order 14160 or any similar successor policy. Executive Order 14160, issued on January 20, 2025, seeks to prevent federal departments and agencies from recognizing the citizenship of certain children born within the United States. The legislation asserts that Executive Order 14160 is unconstitutional , directly contradicting the 14th Amendment, which guarantees citizenship to all persons born or naturalized in the U.S. and subject to its jurisdiction. It cites the 1898 Supreme Court decision in United States v. Wong Kim Ark , which affirmed birthright citizenship for children born in the U.S. to resident aliens. The bill emphasizes that birthright citizenship is a constitutionally guaranteed right, further enshrined in federal law, and therefore cannot be rescinded by executive action or congressional legislation.
