you mean the first one in 1790.. which is the only statue that uses the term.. or the ones later that rest on it as a bedrock and DO NOT ever STATE that Natural Born Citizen means other that what 1790 Says

” And the children of citizens of the United States that may be born beyond Sea, or out of the limits of the United States, shall be considered as natural born Citizens”

Full text of the 1795 amendments at

Feel free to quote from it where the 1790 definition of NBC is resended or stricken in any way.

Or failing that any statue that redefines or changes the 1790 law.

-Or failing that any statue that redefines or changes the 1790 law.-

The 1795 Naturalization Act over turned the 1790 law, and took out “natural born” status for children born out of country.

Sec.3 “the children of citizens of the United States, born out of the limits and jurisdiction of the United States, shall be considered as citizens of the United States”

Signed by Washington into law.
