Tell me where in that passage it says both parents have to be citizens. I see nothing in what you’ve cited to indicate that.

Since this act would only be applied on a case by case basis, the term "children" can only be interpreted as "child". The parentage portion thus applies to a child rather than multiple children. The parentage portion says "citizens". If they had meant for it to apply to one citizen parent, they would have worded it as such just like the provision which followed concerning a non-resident father.

Anyway, the matter of whether or not citizens as it pertains to parentage being singular or plural is secondary to the issue of "natural born citizen" being CHANGED to "citizen" as it applies to Cruz status.
