What does FINDINGS. of Born in the USA Act of 2025 do?

This section outlines findings related to Executive Order 14160, issued by President Trump on January 20, 2025. The order, titled 'Protecting the Meaning and Value of American Citizenship,' is described as 'flagrantly and clearly unconstitutional' for attempting to prohibit federal agencies from recognizing the citizenship of certain children born in the United States. The 14th Amendment's birthright citizenship clause is cited as unambiguously guaranteeing citizenship to those born in the United States and subject to its jurisdiction. The Supreme Court case United States v. Wong Kim Ark (1898) is referenced to support the interpretation of the 14th Amendment, stating that it affirms citizenship by birth within the territory and under the country's protection. Federal courts have challenged the constitutionality of Executive Order 14160. The section asserts that birthright citizenship, guaranteed by the Constitution and codified in the Immigration and Nationality Act, cannot be revoked by executive order or congressional action.

This section prohibits the use of Federal funds to carry out Executive Order 14160. The prohibition extends to any successor Executive order, regulation, or policy related to protecting the meaning and value of American citizenship.
