The new [statutory] law doesn’t stop us from moving to Italy and establishing citizenship like anyone else. It only changes the [constitutional] law that gives people of Italian ancestry a faster, more affordable pathway to citizenship.

There, I fixed that for you. When statutes can override constitutions, there is no constitutional law. You missed that point. If you, or anyone else, doesn't like the constitutional law, then change it. That can't be done by statute.

I didn’t say I liked the change. I was disappointed by it, too, but I blame the people who abused the original law.

Does Italy’s constitution state that citizenship by bloodline extends all the way back through ancestors who left Italy in the 1800s? I read that it doesn’t, but I don’t know. Just asking a question here.
