Refine the definition of a U.S. Citizen

This petition was published by Kay Humphrey on Nov 29, 2010

Change the federal law identifying who is considered an American citizen. That definition should include children born to American citizens even if they are foreign-born children unless the American citizen has formally denounced his or her U.S. citizenship.

We are asking Congress to streamline the issues faced by adult children of American citizens lost in the shuffle of bureaucracy and immigration lines that really have little or no mechanism for granting citizenship to children who should have been American citizens by birth and repeal arbitrary time elements and age stipulations in the present law.
