what happened to the 14th amendment decision
The 14th Amendment issue seems to be about birthright citizenship , not the earlier Trump ballot-disqualification case. The Supreme Court heard the challenge to Trump’s executive order in spring 2026, and reporting in late June says a ruling is expected next week.
What happened
The immediate update is that the Court has not yet issued its final decision on the birthright-citizenship case. Articles from June 25 and April reporting say the justices already heard arguments, lower courts had blocked the order, and the Supreme Court is now expected to rule soon.
Why it matters
The case tests whether the 14th Amendment still guarantees citizenship to most people born on U.S. soil, which is how the rule has generally been understood for more than a century. Coverage also notes that a ruling against the current order would keep the existing birthright-citizenship framework in place, while a ruling for the administration could significantly narrow it.
Different 14th Amendment case
If you meant the Trump ballot case , that one was already decided in 2024: the Supreme Court unanimously reversed Colorado’s attempt to keep him off the ballot under Section 3 of the 14th Amendment. The court said states could not use that provision on their own to bar a federal candidate.
Quick read
- Birthright citizenship case: heard, decision still pending, expected soon.
- Ballot-disqualification case: decided in 2024, Trump stayed on the ballot.
TL;DR: the “14th Amendment decision” most likely refers to the birthright- citizenship case, and as of late June 2026 the Supreme Court has not ruled yet ; a decision is expected imminently.
