About this case

Immigrant families and advocacy organizations brought a class action challenging a 2026 executive order that would direct federal agencies to deny citizenship documents to children in certain categories, including some children connected to foreign nationals or alleged alien enemies. A federal judge certified a class and issued a preliminary injunction blocking enforcement of the order while the litigation remains ongoing.
