What this bill would do

This bill, known as the "Prohibiting Automatic Rights to Enter National Territory Act of 2025," seeks to amend the Immigration and Nationality Act. It aims to clarify the definition of birthright citizenship. Specifically, it modifies the meaning of being "subject to the jurisdiction thereof" for persons born in the United States. Under this change, a person must be born to a parent who is a U.S. citizen or a lawful permanent resident. These new rules would apply to persons born after the act is enacted.
