the long-standing federal policy?

Federal policy? If it's written into the Constitution then there are rules on the proper way to change the Constitution.

“the long-standing federal policy?”...

I was wondering the same thing, too.

The Constitution says that the birthright is for people ‘subject to the jurisdiction thereof’. Children of diplomats do not become citizens if born in the US. If someone is here illegally, how can they say they are under the jurisdiction?

It’s not written into the Constitution! It was a Supreme Court decision that “read into the meaning” that created anchor babies!

It was a bad ruling and it needs to be changed!

It is not written into the constitution, several amendments and stupid court decisions have brought us here.

It isn't in the Constitiution. It was an intentional misreading of the 14th Ammendment by the Supreme Critocrats.
