The SCOTUS needs to correctly interpret the words “subject to the jurisdiction” to exclude a child born here from a foreign national in the country illegally.

Someone just needs to force the issue into the court system, which I would think would not be that hard to do. Some state government entity just needs to deny someone citizenship status, the ACLU will sue, and away we go. This is the kind of serious issue that the Supreme Court is for.
