Trump’s order puts children of immigrants in a ‘stateless’ limbo

One of the first executive orders to be passed by new US president Donald Trump, which rescinded America’s “citizenship by birthright” has created huge uncertainty bordering on panic for children of immigrants who are on work visas in the country. Lawyers and experts told ET that for the children, the order creates a phase of being ‘stateless’ for a brief period as they may be without authorisation since there is no visa category for children of temporary immigrants.
