Several states and cities are in court to argue that President Trump's executive order on birthright citizenship is unconstitutional. Margaret Stock, an immigration attorney, joins CBS News with her take on the court case.

These executive orders have done nothing for my gas and my groceries. The high cost of my rent. Can we get some executive orders to help me please?

Birth Right Citizenship was for my Ancestors who built this Country

Sue all you can. We should stop allowing people getting in here and becoming residents unlawfully.

Atleast granting birthright citizenship for legal immigrants sounds mindful. It’s better for immigrants and his own country if he grants citizenship to H1B workers. Because these kids are grown up by these professionals just to be like them. So giving them citizenship through birth is the right thing. For illegals it should be taken off

🤔Melania was not born in US but her son Barron is . Trump’s first wife was not born in US but their children were born in here . Explaining this to us .

I bet everyone that's crying about this, most of them voted for him. Just like these people in California. And on another note his wife wasn't born here either 😮

a good friend from Chile was a student in the US. She gave birth in the US. The child is now herself a mother with three kids. She and her three kids are all US citizens, AND taxpayers, but the embassy in Santiago regularly renews their passports without checking to see if they've filed tax returns. There are many people like this all over the world. the US is missing a great opportunity by not taxing them.

Our military is trained to defend this nation and its borders foreign and domestic. What a crazy thing for someone in the military to say. Trained to defend!

[dougiefresh]

Seattle?! Oh ffs! Well we know it’s going to the Supreme Court anyway.

[sandys]

All his children except Tiffany ..Elons children..And Vance’s children would also need to be deported by his definition

[jimbones]

If the parents are still under the jurisdiction of their own country, having a child on US soil doesn't make that child a US citizen.

[donmehl]

If you are in the US illegally and have a child, it should not have US citizenship.

[JW-dowc]

SCOTUS will make that final decision. Not a Seattle judge.

[josephsmith]

Oh boy the sound of TDS, good luck with that.

[dvidclapperton]

They aren't all Democrat lawyers.

[ManuelPinner]

The 14th amendment had it to do with the slaves after the civil war that's what the birthright citizenship is for slaves not for immigration,

[dogs]

Baron was born on our American soil four months before Melanie was a him back. What about that?

[Cloudy-np]

the 14th amendment might not apply to criminals from other countries that are here illegally .

Im a veteran and this woman is a disgrace to all us veterans

No matter how you personally feel about Trump, immigration, deportation, or birthright citizenship, the Constitution is the Constitution. Unlike some amendments in the constitution, the 14th amendment is very plainly stated and not open to interpretation. A person born in the U.S. is an American citizen. Period, end of story, get over it!
