Executive Order 14160, titled "Protecting the Meaning and Value of American Citizenship", is an executive order signed by Donald Trump, the 47th president of the United States, on January 20, 2025. The executive order aims to challenge the prevailing interpretation of the Citizenship Clause of the 14th Amendment to the United States Constitution, in order to end birthright citizenship in the United States for children of illegal immigrants as well as immigrants legally but temporarily present in the U.S., such as those on student, work, or tourist visas.

The order was swiftly challenged in court by multiple organizations and states, being blocked by multiple federal judges.
