Trump said he would ask the Supreme Court to reconsider his birthright order. The clock’s run out.

Politico • 7/29/2026 – 7/30/2026

Summary

Former President Donald Trump indicated that he would seek to have the Supreme Court reconsider a ruling related to birthright citizenship. However, the deadline for him to make such a request has now passed, as reported by multiple sources including Politico and AP News. The ruling in question pertains to the interpretation of the 14th Amendment, which grants citizenship to anyone born on U.S. soil. Trump's intention to challenge the birthright citizenship ruling reflects his ongoing focus on immigration issues, which were a significant part of his political platform during his presidency. The Supreme Court's decision on this matter has implications for the legal status of children born in the United States to non-citizen parents. The deadline for filing a request for reconsideration has elapsed, meaning Trump can no longer pursue this legal avenue. The birthright citizenship debate has been a contentious issue in American politics, with various opinions on whether the current interpretation of the 14th Amendment should be upheld or revised. Trump's previous statements suggested he believed the ruling could be overturned, but with the deadline now passed, he has lost the opportunity to formally request a reconsideration from the Supreme Court. This development marks a significant moment in the ongoing discussion surrounding immigration and citizenship in the United States.
