Children born to American military and government employees working overseas will no longer automatically receive US citizenship, their parents will have to apply for it.


That process costs time and money and is a really disrespectful thing to do particularly to Americans serving in the Armed Forces.

He's trying to close the loophole that allowed John McCain to run for president. McCain was born at a Naval Air Station in the Panama Canal Zone.

Perhaps all births by US personnel outside the US should now take place solely in US embassies.

The State Dept will be thrilled to hear they need to open maternity units.


I think he's (and by he I mean Stephen Miller) targeting children of non-citizen soldiers. They may be less inclined to enlist if their children cannot become citizens, or the pregnant spouse will stay in the US instead of being them together as a family, which is just cruelty.

"For them to obtain a Certificate of Citizenship, their U.S. citizen parent must apply for citizenship on their behalf."

Miller really has a sick obsession about this kind of stuff. He is a sick man serving a sick man with a lot of power.

If he really starts going down this road, he needs to be careful because he is going to take away his own citizenship.

Why not, he's already forfeited his humanity.
