Key word: *reinterpret*. They think the 14th amendment has been misapplied in the past. The constitution is sacrosanct, not necessarily the traditional interpretation. In this context, it’s the phrase “subject to the jurisdiction [of the United States]” which is up for debate. Which is fair; legislators at the time wrote that it only applies to those in the country legally.
