What you say is accurate. However the expanded view of birthright citizenship based on Ark V. US has been the guiding principle of law since that case was decided. To change the principle of birthright citizenship will require either the Supreme Court to change it’s opinion in some future case, an amendment altering the language of the XIV Amendment or cancelling the XVI Amendment all together. To end birthright citizenship will require one of these actions to be successful.

I read about that yesterday. As was emphasized in one of the articles I went through, the individual(s) involved in the case were children of, legal immigrants. Additionally, the case and precedent hasn’t been challenged, if I’m not mistaken, at any time in recent history. If the “legal immigrant” were the standard, according to the case that dates back to 1898, then we’ve been getting f*cked for around 120 years.
