Rep. Jerry Nadler, a long-serving member of the U.S. Congress representing New York's 12th district, recently shared his views on social media regarding the 14th Amendment and citizenship rights. His comments come in light of ongoing discussions about constitutional interpretations and the rights of U.S.-born children with undocumented parents.

On January 21, 2025, Rep. Nadler tweeted, "For over 150 years, the 14th Amendment has been clear: U.S.-born children are citizens. I'm grateful to @NewYorkStateAG and the 17 other State AG's who are taking a stand for our Constitution and the 4.4 million U.S.-born children living with an undocumented parent." This statement highlights his support for state attorneys general who advocate for constitutional protections.
