The US government is planning to end birthright citizenship for babies of non-citizens and undocumented immigrants born on US soil, President Donald Trump said in an interview on Tuesday.
In an interview with “Axios on HBO”, Trump said he is working with legal counsel to put an end to the practice, which has existed since 1968 and stipulates that citizenship is automatically granted to any person born within US territory.

“It’s ridiculous and it has to end … it’s in the process and it’ll happen with an executive order,” he said.
