It seems that this law, like other State laws as far as proof of birth, would be satisfied by a computer printout COLB from Hawaii DOH.

Hawaii says that their COLB listing a Hawaiian birthplace is proof of birth within their state, and under the “full faith and credit” clause, Texas is obligated to accept it.

This law neither “Free(s) the long form” or establishes that one must be the child of two citizens to be a “natural born citizen”. In fact it seems that any proof of birth establishing U.S. citizenship at birth would fulfill the requirment to be on the Presidential ballot for any of these States that have (so far) passed these measures.

Hawaii says that their COLB listing a Hawaiian birthplace is proof of birth within their state, and under the “full faith and credit” clause, Texas is obligated to accept it. So if Texas had a law that specifically said COLB is NOT proof of birth in Texas, wouldn't Hawaii have to provide alternate proof under that same clause?
