  • Live from NPR News in Washington, I'm Windsor Johnston.

  • President Trump has signed two executive orders targeting birthright citizenship and so-called birth tourism.

  • NPR's Juliana Kim reports Trump says the White House is adjusting

  • its approach after what he called an unfortunate Supreme Court ruling.

  • Trump tried to restrict birthright citizenship last year through an executive order.

  • That one targeted babies born to parents in the U.S.

  • Illegally or on temporary visas.

  • The order was quickly challenged in the courts, and this June,

  • the nation's highest court struck it down, reaffirming that birthright citizenship is guaranteed by the 14th Amendment.

  • And it's why some legal experts expect Thursday's executive order to also face legal challenges.

  • That's NPR's Juliana Kim reporting.

  • The Federal Communications Commission has voted to wipe away limits on how many Americans

  • any one company can reach through the local TV stations it owns.

  • Congress set a limit at 39 percent of Americans to preserve a range of editorial voices and sensibilities in local TV.

  • NPR's David Folkenflik reports some lawmakers and advocates say the commission's action is unlawful.

  • FCC Chairman Brendan Carr says the local TV business is under pressure from streaming.

  • And he says local TV companies need to bulk up to fight back networks like ABC and CBS and NBC.

  • Carr's launched investigations of major broadcast networks egged on by President Trump.

  • The vote on limits fell two to one along party lines.

  • The lone Democrat on the commission says the vote was illegal, that only Congress can change or erase those limits.
