> New laws not needed. The 14th Amendment already doesn't apply to peoples under the control of other nations. Came here to say this. The "...and subject to the jurisdiction thereof" section is conveniently ignored or purposefully misinterpreted by ((( people ))) pushing the idea of birthright citizenship for illegals. A contextual reading of the amendment would provide the understanding that the statement means precisely the opposite. People who are already citizens of another country (such as an ambassador or a tourist) can't claim citizenship for any children born while they're here in the States. People here illegally also fall into that category.
