Trump’s Executive Order on Birthright Citizenship: Implications for H-1B Visa Holders' Children
January 21, 2025 - 22:01
US President Trump has signed an executive order to end birthright citizenship, effective January 2025. This significant policy change will affect children born in the United States to legal immigrants, particularly those holding H-1B visas. Under the current law, any child born on US soil automatically receives citizenship, a right that has been a cornerstone of American immigration policy for generations.
The new directive raises concerns among H-1B visa holders, many of whom are highly skilled professionals working in various sectors, including technology and healthcare. With the potential loss of citizenship for their children, these families may face challenges in accessing higher education and other opportunities that come with being a US citizen.
Critics argue that this move could create a generation of stateless individuals, complicating their educational and career prospects. As the situation unfolds, many are left wondering how this policy will reshape the landscape of immigration and citizenship in the United States.
