What do I talk about here? What are my Voice issues?
* Police and official misconduct
* Wrongful convictions
* Human trafficking
* Justice reform
I also follow genealogy, veteran's issues, history, and a variety of other topics. It's that whole "Writer Unfocused" concept.

No "birthright citizenship" means nobody can prove they are a citizen. If you have any immigrant ancestor and you cannot prove lawful status at that time, even if it was 1830, you citizenship is in doubt.
Take this as far back as you like. The maximal consequence is that everyone must show a chain of citizenship or lawful permanent residency at time of birth for every ancestor to the point of immigration.
