GOP Texas U.S. Rep. Brian Babin is seeking to end the misuse of birthright citizenship through a piece of legislation

Ending birthright citizenship, increasing oil drilling, and leaving WHO are just a few bills the state’s Republicans pushed in Congress this month.

Rep. Brian Babin has introduced a bill that would end automatic birthright citizenship for children born to illegal aliens.

Rep. Brian Babin introduced the Birthright Citizenship Act, aiming to redefine citizenship for U.S.-born children, echoing Trump's controversial executive order.

Trump’s order targeting the Constitution’s 14th Amendment was hit with several legal challenges by Democratic attorneys general and was blocked by a federal judge Thursday afternoon.

A federal judge blocked President Donald Trump's executive order ending birthright citizenship on Thursday, calling the order "blatantly unconstitutional."

The move comes just as Trump’s attempt to cut off the longstanding constitutional right through an executive order drew immediate legal challenges this week.
