14-й поправки до Конституції США говорить, що "Усі особи, які народилися або натуралізовані у Сполучених Штатах і підпадають під юрисдикцію його, є громадянами Сполучених Штатів і штату, в якому вони проживають." Противники народженні правої громадянства стверджують, що 14 поправка не ясно, так як він не конкретно вказується, що діти, народжені від батьків, які були в Сполучених Штатах незаконно були автоматично громадяни. Прихильники стверджують, що перекидання 14-й поправки призведе до збільшення числа нелегальних іммігрантів з кожною дитиною, народженою тут, коштували платникам податків мільярди американських і зменшують податкову базу.

If they are born here they are citizens, however their parents may be deported as they have committed a crime entering the country illegally. They may apply for citizenship once they have returned to their native country. The child may stay or go and retain citizenship.

When you cross into our border you are illegal and all your children born here are illegal like YOU! they should not be citizens. congress needs to change the law and do it NOW and date in back years!
@MRYML84 роки4Y
They should be deported and children born here should not be legal citizens. Boarder protection must increase and shot on the spot if caught.
@LX72TP4 роки4Y
Yes, children born within the borders of the U.S. must be citizens under the text of the Constitution.
@LX2MKJ4 роки4Y
Yes after a few years and going through citizenship process

Only if they have lived in the US their entire lives and have not lived in the parent's home land.
@LWRDMD4 роки4Y
Depends on what they are doing with their life. Productive citizens yes, criminal no.
@LMDSCQ4 роки4Y
No, they need to come to America on a certified passport/green card and be able to speak English.
@GPYGV84 роки4Y
There should be a pathway to citizenship for all, especially if brought here against their will
@GKLJRL4 роки4Y
The children of course, it is not their fault they are here. Anyone else should have to undergo a procedure to become a citizen but that doesn't mean deny them access. Last I remember, America is a country built by immigrants, we should not view them with hostility just because they didn't migrate here when our ancestors did.
@FZZ64Z4 роки4Y
It should be based on the constitution
@358M2G4 роки4Y
No. End birth-right citizenship if parents are illegal.
@69YHS4 роки4Y
They should be treated as refugees seeking political asylum and be monitored for criminal activity while giving them opportunity to work in the US
