Plain-English Summary

The proposal would change which children born in the United States automatically become U.S. citizens, potentially restricting birthright citizenship for children whose parents are not citizens or are in the country illegally. Currently, anyone born on U.S. soil is automatically a citizen regardless of their parents' immigration status, but this bill would alter that rule. The change would affect millions of children born to immigrant families and could require them to go through additional steps to gain citizenship.
