Headline: UNCAPTIONED: Supreme Court Rejects Trump Birthright Citizenship Bid
Caption: Supreme Court Rejects Trump Birthright Citizenship Bid. The Supreme Court of the United States has rejected President Donald Trump's effort to restrict birthright citizenship, ruling his executive order violates the U.S. Constitution. The 6-3 decision said the Constitution's 14th Amendment guarantees citizenship to nearly everyone born in the United States. The ruling blocks Trump's plan to deny citizenship to children born in the U.S. if neither parent is a U.S. citizen or permanent resident. In a separate ruling, the Supreme Court upheld laws allowing states to bar transgender student athletes from competing on girls' and women's sports teams. The justices ruled the state laws do not violate federal anti-discrimination protections or the Constitution's equal protection clause. Trump called the sports ruling a "BIG WIN" but criticized the birthright citizenship decision, urging Congress to act. The court also struck down additional campaign finance restrictions on the final day of its term. Instructions: THIS VIDEO MUST NOT BE EDITED FOR LENGTH TO COMBINE WITH OTHER CONTENT
