Trump's record-breaking Day 1 executive actions prompt legal challenges

Another controversial executive order Trump signed was one aiming to cut off birthright citizenship. Critics immediately pounced on Trump, arguing people born in the United States are granted citizenship under the U.S. Constitution's 14th Amendment even if their birth parents migrated here illegally.

On his first day in office, President Donald Trump signed a series of executive actions, marking a significant and immediate shift in policy direction. These actions included withdrawing from the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP), reinstating the Mexico City policy which bans federal funding for international groups that perform or promote abortions, and imposing a hiring freeze on federal workers, with exceptions for military, public safety, and national security positions. Additionally, Trump moved to expedite environmental reviews for infrastructure projects, signaling a potential rollback of regulations. These moves were met with both praise and criticism; supporters viewed them as fulfilling campaign promises to prioritize American interests and reduce government spending, while critics raised concerns over the implications for international relations, women's health, and environmental protection. The flurry of executive actions underscored Trump's intent to govern through decisive, unilateral moves, setting a tone for his administration's approach to policy-making.
