Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes issued the following statement on the Birthright Citizenship ruling from the Supreme Court:

"The 14th Amendment was written in plain language and with clear purpose. It was a guarantee that if you are born in this country, you are a citizen. Today, the Court upheld that promise – and upheld the soul of this nation. Birthright citizenship has strengthened our communities and made this country a beacon of opportunity for generations of families who came here seeking a better life in a free country. The Court made the right decision today. I am proud to have brought this case alongside my fellow attorneys general in defense of the constitutional rights countless Americans have fought and died to protect." – AG Mayes
