US appeals court rejects Trump's bid to curtail birthright citizenship

- A U.S. appeals court on Wednesday let stand an order blocking President Donald Trump from curtailing automatic birthright citizenship nationwide as part of the Republican's hardline crackdown on immigration and illegal border crossings.

The San Francisco-based 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals rejected the Trump administration request to pause the lower-court judge's order. It was the first time an appellate court had weighed in on Trump's executive order on birthright citizenship, whose fate may ultimately be decided by the U.S. Supreme Court.
