S 646 United States Senate · 119th Congress

Born in the USA Act

This bill prohibits federal funding for Executive Order 14160 (and any successor policies), which attempted to deny U.S. citizenship to children born in the U.S. to non-citizen parents. It directly affects the executive branch by blocking financial support for the controversial order, which contradicted the 14th Amendment and established court precedent like *United States v. Wong Kim Ark*. The bill’s key mechanism is a funding ban, ensuring no government resources can be used to implement policies that undermine birthright citizenship guaranteed by the Constitution and immigration law. It does not alter citizenship rules but prevents enforcement of the challenged executive order.
