A federal judge blocks Trump's executive order ending birthright citizenship for children of people in the U.S. illegally, saying he's not persuaded by the administration's arguments.

A third federal judge on Monday blocked President Donald Trump’s executive order ending birthright citizenship for the children of people who are in the U.S. illegally.

Any appeals the Trump administration pursues could now wind through three different federal appeals courts, including the Boston-based 1st U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, whose only active judges are Democratic appointees and which has jurisdiction over New Hampshire.
