-- It was defined in the Naturalization Act of 1790. --

Repealed in 1795.

US citizenship is assigned directly in the US constitution as ratified with the Bill of Rights, and as amended by the 14th amendment. This question can be resolved with the constitution as the authority.

Question, if Congress can make a person a natural born citizen, can it make a naturalized person into a natural born citizen? Why or why not?

You are quite knowledgeable on the topic of US citizenship. A poster claimed

"All Citizenship in a country is derived by virtue of statutes."

I am curious my father was born here (USA) to a US citizen parents, my mother was born here to a US citizens parents. I was born here. What statute make me a US citizen?
