What are they talking about? US Citizenship comes from the US. The most they could try to do is deny issuing ‘proof’ of birth.

Lawmakers in at least 14 states are collaborating on proposed legislation

I'll believe it when it's been passed into law for the entire nation.

Take not that California is never involved in things like this. The state legislature doesn’t have the cajones to get involved.

Why does there need to be a constitutional amendment?

Section 5 of the 14th Amendment:

Section. 5. The Congress shall have power to enforce, by appropriate legislation, the provisions of this article.

By the way, has anybody looked at Section 3?

Section. 3. No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President and Vice President, or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States, or under any State, who, having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress, or as an officer of the United States, or as a member of any State legislature, or as an executive or judicial officer of any State, to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof. But Congress may by a vote of two-thirds of each House, remove such disability.

It seems to me that most liberals in Congress should have been disqualified for office by their treasonous activities.

The Congressional Hispanic Caucus, for example.

Suppose someone was born in the U.S. and lived here his whole life. Do you really want to deport him because his parents are illegal? Punishing children for the sins of their parents makes me uncomfortable. I don’t think there should be automatic citizenship for someone born in the U.S. to illegals, but I do think there ought to be a path to citizenship for people who were born here, obey the law, and are not a drain on society.

U.S. Constitution's 14th Amendment, which grants automatic citizenship to U.S.-born children of illegal immigrants.

Actually, it doesn't. It has been misinterpreted for decades.

“We can’t get Congress to do it,” “

Waiting for Congress was a huge mistake. We were stupid to let them run things to such an extent for us without realizing taht they would of course abuse it.

“WHAT IS A PATRIOT?”

PATRIOTS are not “Revolutionaries” trying to overthrow the government of the United States.

PATRIOTS are “Counter-Revolutionaries” trying to prevent the government of the United States from overthrowing the Constitution of the United States. - Unknown Author

What brings the PATRIOTS out of the woodwork?

When the constitutional process, the system of checks and balances set up by the Founders, has not just been thrown out of kilter, it has been thrown out the window. These socialist maneuvers are what attracts PATRIOTS to the streets of America.

This will be a repeat of the AZ anti-illegals law. States should simply pass these laws and completely ignore the feds, including their lawsuits. Don’t even respond or file answers to them. Really, when you think about it, what can they do about it without starting a civil war?

The efforts by the state legislators come amid calls to change the U.S. Constitution's 14th Amendment, which grants automatic citizenship to U.S.-born children of illegal immigrants

At first glance I would say this is a smokescreen and a fake, meant to accomplish the opposite of the entitled purpose. Grandstanding. Bullshiite.

In point of fact, the 14th Amendment DOES NOT in any way, shape, or form grant citizenship to the children of those in the country illegally. In point of fact, neither does it offer citizenship to the children of visitors here legally.

We are dealing with a generous custom, which must now be ended; nothing more. It can be ended tonight by nothing more than an executive order.

What the 14 state legislatures ought to be doing is insisting that Presidential candidates be "Natural Born Citizens," as required in the COTUS. Once and for all, that is what needs to be defined, with the original intent of the Founders clearly in mind.

By denying the present POTUS a p[lace on state ballots, which is clearly within their power, this definition can be settled by the SCOTUS. Has to be done, even if the lesbo-commies now seated toss the case for Obama.

I’m pretty torn on this issue. On the one hand, if our government did it’s job, then this action would not be an issue. In addition, I am willing to admit that our Founders were much more wise than I can even imagine, so I am very hesitent to changing the USSC.

On the other hand, the gov is neglecting to do their duty.
