U.S. President-elect Donald Trump will issue an order intended to end birthright citizenship for U.S.-born children whose parents lack legal immigration status, an incoming White House official said on Monday.
Citing the 14th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, the official said in briefing: "The federal government will not recognize automatic birthright citizenship for children of illegal aliens born in the United States. We are also going to enhance vetting and screening of illegal aliens."
