**sigh**
seriously, do some homework.
the 14th Amendment, if you can actually make it thru the WHOLE FIRST SENTENCE, explains how a person would need residency and be under US jurisdiction to qualify for citizenship.
illegals are not residents of the state. they are essentially tourists that never left.
it’s just not possible under the 14th for their children to be US citizens.
as for why various codes exist to give out US citizenship as if it were taffy... that’s simple. the left has been gaslighting and pushing for flood the country with illegals for decades. but at the end of the day, any law, no matter how many or how long they’ve been ‘on the books’, if it contradicts the Constitution then those laws are null and void.
Says the man who doesn't know the common law legal maxim of Jus soli.
