Johnson eyes vote on bill to end ‘birth tourism' to satisfy right flank
Speaker Mike Johnson is considering a House vote to end birthright citizenship for children of pregnant women entering the U.S. legally, aiming to satisfy conservative demands. The proposal would be symbolic due to Senate filibuster challenges, while Johnson faces pressure to address Trump’s border priorities and resolve internal GOP divisions over immigration reform.
