Trump announces he will ask Supreme Court to reconsider birthright citizenship ruling

President Donald Trump said Wednesday he would ask the U.S. Supreme Court to reconsider its June 30 ruling that upheld birthright citizenship under the 14th Amendment. Trump described the court's decision as 'absolutely insane' and cited as 'shocking new evidence' two Texas hospital billboards in Mexico advertising birthing services. The Supreme Court rarely grants requests to rehear cases and has not done so after a ruling in an argued case in decades. Trump also urged Congress to pass legislation to end birthright citizenship, which would require a constitutional amendment.
