BOSTON (AP) — A federal judge in Boston on Friday will consider a request from 18 state attorneys general to block President Donald Trump’s executive order ending birthright citizenship for the children of parents who are in the U.S. illegally.

The hearing in Boston concerned two separate but similar lawsuits, one brought by the 18 states, the District of Columbia and the City of San Francisco, and the other on behalf of an expectant mother by Lawyers for Civil Rights, an advocacy group based in Boston.
