Bruce Springsteen has allowed ‘Born in the USA’ to be used in the fight against an executive order filed by President Donald Trump.

The classic track can be heard in a new campaign courtesy of the American Civil Liberties Union, as they prepare for a hearing at the United States Supreme Court in relation to Trump vs Barbara on April 1st.

Trump vs Barbara comes after the president made an executive order after returning to the Oval Office in January 2025, which looked to alter the 14th Amendment of the Constitution to prevent anyone born in the USA from gaining citizenship.

In the new advert, soundtracked by the Springsteen classic, which aims to “protect birthright citizenship”, different Americans of all creeds and colours are shown while the poignant chorus to the 1984 track rings out.

The caption on YouTube reads, “Born in the U.S.A.? This is your home. We’re honored that the one and only Bruce Springsteen trusted us with use of his iconic anthem ahead of our landmark Supreme Court case Trump v. Barbara, where we’re challenging President Trump’s attempt to take away the constitutional right to birthright citizenship.”

Over the next week, before the hearing on April 1st, an edited 30-second version of the advert, which premiered today (March 23rd) on Morning Joe, will be shown across popular US programming such as MLB Opening Day, Survivor, and American Idol.

The statement notes, “Living rooms across the nation will be filled with this reminder of this constitutional right that makes up the fabric of our nation.”

On their website, the American Civil Liberties Union says Trump has “targeted immigrants since his first day in office, and his efforts to eliminate birthright citizenship are at the center of his cruel agenda to redefine who gets to be an American”.

In an interview with Rolling Stone, Anthony D Romero, the executive director of the American Civil Liberties Union, praised Springsteen for “speaking truth to power when the titans of industry were caving and sniveling,” noting that ‘The Boss’ was “becoming increasingly agitated and that he was ready to fight back just like we were”.

He also stated that getting permission from Springsteen’s team, which needed approval from Sony, “turned out to be the easy part” compared to getting the case heard at the Supreme Court.

Springsteen’s decision to allow the American Civil Liberties Union comes just a month after he was labelled a “loser” by the Trump administration after announcing the US leg of his Land of Hopes and Dreams tour while condemning “our wannabe king and his rogue government”.

‘The Boss’ will kick off the tour at the Target Center in Minneapolis on March 31st.
