What else can explain the hearing that they've scheduled for today? As I explained last time, the majority swung and missed on this topic. The text and legislative history of the 14th Amendment clearly establish that aside from rare exceptions, a person's birth in the United States guarantees citizenship in the United States. To suggest otherwise is nothing more than a disingenuous attempt to rewrite our nation's history and the very words of the Constitution. And you don't have to take my word for it. (28:53–29:08)
