Steve Yale-Loehr Interviewed by Arizona Republic on Birthright Citizenship

Jul 21, 2025 | Immigration Articles

In the article, Confused About the Status of Birthright Citizenship in the U.S.? Here’s What to Know, Steve said that he is “confident that some lower courts will decide on the merits that President Trump’s efforts to repeal birthright citizenship are unconstitutional. That lower court decision will eventually make its way back to the Supreme Court. Eventually, we will get a decision on the merits of President Trump’s executive order trying to repeal birthright citizenship.” He said that the “Constitution is clear and the case law is also clear. However, President Trump is already scaring people who unnecessarily worry that their citizenship may be taken from them,” and that “I think fear is the goal. They’ve done that in so many different ways. On birthright citizenship, on mass deportation efforts, trying to discourage international students from coming to or staying in the United States. So even if they lose in the courts, they’re winning the public relations battle.”
