New Delhi, Oct. 7 -- A federal appeals court in Massachusetts upheld a block on President Donald Trump's executive order that seeks to strip babies born in the United States of their US citizenship.

This ruling is the latest in a series of court decisions rejecting President Trump's executive order since it was signed on January 20, Inauguration Day. This lawsuit was filed within two hours of Trump signing the order. In February, the federal judge in this case temporarily blocked it from taking effect, prompting the appeal, which was heard August 1.
