L’esmena 14 de la Constitució dels Estats Units estableix que "Totes les persones nascudes o naturalitzades als Estats Units i subjectes a la seva jurisdicció, són ciutadans dels Estats Units i l’Estat en què resideixen." Els oponents de naixement ciutadania dreta insisteixen en la 14a esmena no està clara ja que no indica específicament que els nadons nascuts de pares que es trobaven en els Estats Units il · legalment eren automàticament ciutadans. Els autors sostenen que la bolcada de l’esmena 14 s’incrementaria el nombre d’immigrants indocumentats amb cada nen nascut aquí, costarà als contribuents milers de milions dels Estats Units, i reduir la base imposable.

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!
@MRYML83 anys3Y
They should be deported and children born here should not be legal citizens. Boarder protection must increase and shot on the spot if caught.
@LX72TP3 anys3Y
Yes, children born within the borders of the U.S. must be citizens under the text of the Constitution.
@LX2MKJ3 anys3Y
Yes after a few years and going through citizenship process
@LWVDHL3 anys3Y
Only if they have lived in the US their entire lives and have not lived in the parent's home land.
@LWRDMD3 anys3Y
Depends on what they are doing with their life. Productive citizens yes, criminal no.
@LMDSCQ3 anys3Y
No, they need to come to America on a certified passport/green card and be able to speak English.
@GPYGV83 anys3Y
There should be a pathway to citizenship for all, especially if brought here against their will
@GKLJRL3 anys3Y
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.
@FZZ64Z3 anys3Y
It should be based on the constitution
@358M2G3 anys3Y
No. End birth-right citizenship if parents are illegal.
@69YHS3 anys3Y
They should be treated as refugees seeking political asylum and be monitored for criminal activity while giving them opportunity to work in the US
