Plain-English Summary

This proposed constitutional amendment would change the rules for who automatically becomes a U.S. citizen at birth, potentially affecting children born to non-citizen parents in the United States. The amendment would need approval from two-thirds of both the House and Senate, plus ratification by three-fourths of state legislatures to become part of the Constitution. It would impact immigration policy and citizenship eligibility for future generations of Americans.
