Summary
This joint resolution proposes a constitutional amendment to clarify that the 14th Amendment's citizenship clause does not automatically grant citizenship to children born in the United States unless at least one parent is a U.S. citizen, a U.S. national, or a lawfully admitted permanent resident. The amendment would redefine what it means to be "subject to the jurisdiction of the United States" for purposes of birthright citizenship. Congress would be granted authority to enact legislation to implement the amendment.
