Catholic Bishops Slam Trump as 'Immoral' on Flagship MAGA Plan

America’s Roman Catholic bishops have asked the nation’s highest court to stop President Donald Trump’s “immoral” bid to end birthright citizenship.

In an amicus brief filed with the Supreme Court on Thursday, the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) and Catholic Legal Immigration Network, Inc. (CLINIC), asked the justices to “protect God-given human dignity” by finding the president’s executive order seeking to end birthright citizenship unconstitutional.

“At its core, this case is not solely a question about citizenship status or the Fourteenth Amendment,” the bishops wrote. “It is a question of whether the law will affirm or deny the equal worth of those born within our common community—whether the law will protect the human dignity of all God’s children.”

Trump signed the executive order “Protecting the Meaning and Value of American Citizenship” on his first day back in office. It sought to deny citizenship to children born in the United States to undocumented parents, despite birthright citizenship being enshrined in the 14th Amendment.
