Holding

Because H.R. 9633 seeks to restore the original, allegiance-based meaning of 'subject to the jurisdiction thereof' and to condition birthright citizenship on the lawful, non-temporary presence of a parent, it strongly advances Articles VI, XVII, and II; scored as a normative legal instrument (85/15), it earns 82 — America First.
