What does "birthright citizenship" mean?
Answer (3)
It means acquiring citizenship in a country(U.S.A for example) by being born in the country or one of its territories(Guam or Puerto Rico for example) and being subject to its jurisdiction and automatically receiving citizenship. Birthright citizenship may also be conferred jus soli or jus sanguinis.
Birthright **citizenship **is the principle that an individual born within a country is automatically a citizen of that country. This is guaranteed in the United States by the Fourteenth Amendment. ;
Birthright citizenship grants citizenship to individuals born in a country's territory, primarily under the principle of 'jus soli.' In the U.S., this is protected by the Fourteenth Amendment, which ensures that all individuals born in the country are considered citizens. This principle promotes a clear and inclusive legal status for those born on U.S. soil.
