 <\/p>\n

Barron Trump\u2019s citizenship has been explained after Donald Trump made some serious moves to end birthright citizenship.<\/p>\n

After Trump was sworn in as the 47th president of the United States on Monday (20 January), he immediately got to work.<\/p>\n

The 78-year-old signed a lot of new policies, such as\u00a0withdrawing from the Paris Climate Agreement<\/a>\u00a0and the World Health Organisation (WHO), as well as\u00a0delaying the TikTok ban<\/a>.<\/p>\n

However, it was the\u00a0ending the birthright citizenship<\/a>\u00a0which left many to wonder what was going to happen with his youngest son\u00a0Barron Trump\u2019s<\/a>\u00a0US citizenship.<\/p>\n

What is birthright citizenship in the US?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

To explain what it all means, essentially, it\u2019s the legal principle of\u00a0jus soli –\u00a0<\/em>which means ‘right of the soil’ in Latin.<\/p>\n

The 14th Amendment to the US constitution states that there is a principle of birthright citizenship, where \u2018all persons born or naturalised in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the state wherein they reside’.<\/p>\n

So, anyone born in the US is a citizen, regardless of their parents’ citizenship.<\/p>\n

What is going to happen to the birthright citizenship?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Simply put, 30 days after the new executive order was signed, anyone who is born in the US who doesn\u2019t have a least one parent who is a lawful permanent resident or US citizen, are no longer automatically extended US citizenship.<\/p>\n

This means that it disallows federal agencies from issuing or recognising documentation proving US citizenship for children who don’t meet that criteria.<\/p>\n

For any children who are born to unauthorised immigrants or those on temporary visas, they will not be recognised as US citizens.<\/p>\n

However, a judge\u00a0has already blocked Trump’s executive order<\/a>, with such a significant change to the constitution likely to face major legal challenges.<\/p>\n

What are people saying about Barron Trump\u2019s citizenship?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Well, Barron was born to\u00a0Melania Trump<\/a>, who became an official US citizen on 28 July 2006, and Trump was already a US citizen due to his birthright, and his parents.<\/p>\n

However, Barron was born on 20 March 2006, months before Melania was a US citizen.<\/p>\n

Online, people believe that they\u2019ve found a fault in Trump\u2019s plan, as his own son wouldn\u2019t be recognised under his own order.<\/p>\n

One person wrote: \u201cShe was not a citizen when he was born sooo…… Barron was not born to an American mother.. Doesn’t that go against his immigration laws?????”<\/p>\n

What does the change to birthright citizenship mean for Barron Trump?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

While Barron\u2019s mother is\u00a0Slovenian-born<\/a>, he’s a US citizen by birth and thanks to Trump\u2019s US status, which means the executive order wouldn’t impact him.<\/p>\n

As someone summarised: \u201cShe was married to [Trump] by then, and, regrettably he is an American citizen.\u201d<\/p>\n

Another confirmed as per the order: \u201cHis father is a citizen, and the change is not retroactive. \u2018Subsection (a) of this section shall apply only to persons who are born within the United States after 30 days from the date of this order.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n
