Title 8 is a collection of laws and policies, some legislative statutes, some constitutional clauses, some writings by policy wonks in government departments. Fortunately for us, you can’t just throw something into Title 8 and call it constitutional law or a definition of constitutional law.

Congress has never created a natural born citizen. All citizens they have created are naturalized citizens, per their enumerated powers.


Title 8 is a section of the Federal Code of Regulations. which are the administrative laws of the United States. The effect of administrative law is that the regulations are treated by the courts as being as legally binding as statutory law, provided the regulations are a reasonable interpretation of the underlying statutes. This “reasonable interpretation” test or Chevron doctrine was articulated by the U.S. Supreme Court in a unanimous decision involving a challenge to new Clean Air Act regulations promulgated by the Reagan administration in 1981.

Even if Title 8 was codified into positive law, and it’s not, it wouldn’t trump the Constitution.

Which “title” was in play regarding the clean air act? Has that code been enacted into positive law? What constitutional questions were in play?

Title 8 is a section of the Federal Code of Regulations.

8 USC 1401 is part of the US code, laws passed by Congress. Title 8 CFR contains the implementing regulations. For 8 USC 1401 the regulations depending upon it are 8 CFR 301.
