How does the Fourteenth Amendment affect citizenship?
[] It says that anyone born in the U.S. automatically becomes a U.S. citizen.
[] It says that immigrants living in the U.S. are granted citizenship upon entry to the U.S.
[] It says that Black people may not be citizens or file cases in federal court.
[] It says that a child born of a U.S. citizen outside the U.S. becomes a U.S. citizen automatically.
The Fourteenth Amendment states that anyone born in the U.S. automatically becomes a U.S. citizen, regardless of their parents' citizenship or immigration status. This principle of birthright citizenship has been a cornerstone of U.S. citizenship law and has been interpreted to apply to children born to immigrants, refugees, and unauthorized immigrants in the United States.
