California Attorney General Rob Bonta today filed a lawsuit challenging the Trump Administration’s unconstitutional executive order seeking to end birthright citizenship. Under the Fourteenth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, all children born on U.S. soil are automatically granted U.S. citizenship and the rights and privileges that come with it.

Attorney General Rob Bonta said he would defend birthright citizenship following an executive order by President Donald Trump, as California officials gear up for what is expected to be many legal challenges involving the new administration.
