What are your thoughts on Trump's plan to end birthright citizenship in the US?
He plans to do it by executive order - which most people think is not constitutionally possible.
Regardless of its feasibility at the moment, do you support this measure?
Dark blue = birthright citizenship
Intermediate blue = restrictions
light blue = abolished birthright citizenship
grey = no such system
As you can see the Americas are essentially on their own with unconditional birthright citizenship. Most other western nations have much more restrictive systems in place.
With documented cases of birth tourism https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Birth_tourism, some people think it's finally time to end the loophole.
