Well Wong Kim Ark certainly did.

It could be Wong Kim Ark could have been poorly decided.

The same way Roe-v-Wade was a bad decision

WKA included the idea that citizenship by birth required parents here “in amity” - in friendship - with the US government. Children of illegal aliens would OBVIOUSLY not be born citizens, according to the WKA ruling.
