A federal judge in Maryland on Monday ordered the Trump administration to explain how it will enforce President Donald Trump's executive order that would deny citizenship to children born on U.S. soil to unlawful immigrants or those on temporary immigrant status,

The court's decision left enough room for the challengers to Trump's directive to try to prevent it from taking effect while litigation over its legality plays out.

The Supreme Court’s ruling narrowed the authority of federal judges but still left open several channels to challenge the president’s executive order banning birthright citizenship.
