I've read a few different standards for revoking birthright:
1. Probably the weakest notion is to revoke birthright going forward on children born in US to parents without legal status.
2. A stronger notion seems to be the revocation of birthright going forward on children born in the US to parents with green cards but not yet US citizenship. This seems to be a popular form of jus sanguinis in some EU countries.
3. I'm not sure how serious is the talk about revocation of birthright retroactively for all those born on US soil but to parents who at the time only had green cards.
Does anyone have an idea of the momentum behind the stronger forms of revocation?
