Birthright Citizenship

The amendment is a ruse. The answer lies in border security and a legal immigration system that functions to assimilate prospective citizens.

I heard that the US is the last developed nations to still offer birthright citizenship.

SOME MODERN COUNTRIES THAT RECENTLYENDED THEIR BIRTHRIGHT CITIZENSHIP POLICY• Canada was the last non-U.S. holdout. Illegal aliens stopped getting citizenship for their babies in 2009.• Australia's birthright citizenship requirements are much more stringent than those of H.R. 1868 and took effect in 2007.• New Zealand repealed in 2006• Ireland repealed in 2005• France repealed in 1993• India repealed in 1987• United Kingdom repealed in 1983• Portugal repealed in 1981

I still think the problem of anchor babies can be dealt with by Congress without an amendment.
