Astronauts For America Statement on Supreme Court Ruling to Uphold Birthright Citizenship

“Astronauts For America is pleased to see the Supreme Court rule in favor of upholding the 14th Amendment. This decision reaffirms more than 150 years of legal precedent that children born or naturalized in the United States are citizens. 

“This is a triumph for the American value of equality, ensuring that some individuals are not relegated to a subordinate class. Birthright citizenship is a constitutional right that has defined this country for decades and ensures equal treatment regardless of parental background. As astronauts, we’ve been able to live out the American Dream, and today’s decision helps unlock that opportunity for future generations.”
