This bill would change who automatically becomes a U.S. citizen at birth by denying citizenship to children born in the United States if their parents entered the country illegally or came specifically to give birth here. It would affect millions of immigrants and their children by removing a constitutional right that has existed for over 150 years, potentially creating a large population of people born in the U.S. who are not citizens. The proposal would require changes to the Constitution and would significantly impact immigration policy and family rights.
