The Supreme Court has finally weighed in on birthright citizenship, and to the frustration of conservatives across the nation, they got it wrong. Simply saying that today is enough to invite endless ridicule from those who insist the Constitution plainly and unambiguously grants citizenship to anyone born on American soil. There is little interest in engaging with the intended purpose of the 14th Amendment, its historical context, or whether that interpretation serves the long-term interests of the nation. Yet the same people who demand a strictly literal reading of the 14th Amendment rarely apply that standard consistently to the rest of the Constitution.
