Usha Vance is a U.S. citizen, and the Trump administration's executive order does not affect her status. The order's wording explicitly states that it only applies to individuals born more than 30 days after it was issued.

The Trump administration's plan to limit birthright citizenship is not intended to apply to children already born on U.S. soil.

Children born in the U.S. would not be American citizens if their parents are not in the country lawfully.

If this proposal becomes law, it would not change the citizenship status of the vice president's spouse.

When the baby was born:

• The child's mother is unlawfully present in the U.S. and the father is neither a U.S. citizen nor a lawful permanent resident,
• The child's mother had a lawful presence in the U.S. but only on a temporary basis, and the child's father was neither a U.S. citizen nor a lawful permanent resident.

I didn’t find a provided text. Please share the text you'd like me to paraphrase.
