Rep. Steve King’s “Birthright Citizenship” bill, now filed.

Shown Here:
Introduced in House (01/03/2017)

Birthright Citizenship Act of 2017

This bill amends the Immigration and Nationality Act to consider a person born in the United States “subject to the jurisdiction” of the United States for citizenship at birth purposes if the person is born in the United States of parents, one of whom is: (1) a U.S. citizen or national, (2) a lawful permanent resident alien whose residence is in the United States, or (3) an alien performing active service in the U.S. Armed Forces.

This Act shall not be construed to affect the citizenship or nationality status of any person born before the date of its enactment.

The last line is the caveat that would keep me from being deported to Poland. Presumably it could be stripped from the bill at any time (which would then make me subject to it), or the bill might die in committee. It has twenty co-sponsors.
