Ending Birthright Citizenship: Becoming a U.S. citizen should require more than your mother successfully sneaking past the Border Patrol.
Michael
Anton, a former national security adviser for Trump, pointed out in
July that "there’s a clause in the middle of the amendment that people
ignore or they misinterpret – subject to the jurisdiction thereof.”
"What
they are saying is, if you are born on U.S. soil subject to the
jurisdiction of the United States – meaning you’re the child of citizens
or the child of legal immigrants, then you are entitled to
citizenship,” Anton told Fox News’ Tucker Carlson in July. “If you are
here illegally, if you owe allegiance to a foreign nation, if you’re the
citizen of a foreign country, that clause does not apply to you.”
