All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.
Supreme Court will decide that the term “and subject to the jurisdiction thereof” in the 14th amendment actually means they weren’t born here if their parents aren’t citizens. They don’t have to repeal amendments when they can just make shit up.
The Roberts court has shown that they don’t care about stare decisis, precedents, or facts (ex. the photographer who had no legitimate standing on account of not actually receiving requests from a same-sex couple and having fabricated one instead). I wouldn’t hold my breath on that case not being overturned.
Alito cited a 17th century jurist in his justification for overturning Roe v. Wade. That’s 1600s, a century before the US was founded and not relevant to extant law.

What about authorized migrants on visa? My sister was born in the US the years after my parents moved there on work visa.

Thanks!
Actually I’m sure it’s even easier for them:
“It says no STATE and since this is coming from the federal government it isn’t a state so it’s totally cool!”
If they’re not “subject to the jurisdiction thereof” they can’t be held accountable for any crimes.
So uh… Congrats immigrants on being just as free as Donald Trump I guess?
