NEW YORK — President Trump is reportedly considering issuing an executive order that attempts to end birthright citizenship in the United States.

Omar Jadwat, director of the ºìÐÓÊÓÆµâ€™s Immigrants’ Rights Project, had this reaction:

“The president cannot erase the Constitution with an executive order, and the 14th Amendment's citizenship guarantee is clear. This is a transparent and blatantly unconstitutional attempt to sow division and fan the flames of anti-immigrant hatred in the days ahead of the midterms.â€
