The US and Canada are the only nations in the developed world that still allow birthright citizenship. We need to get rid of it.

I'm not saying I disagree but the 14th Amendment seems to tie our hands.

The 14th amendment has been misinterpreted into perpetuity. The Congress can likely change the interpretation without an amendment.

There are ways around the SCOTUS. They are not the final word.
