As per the current US Immigration Law, If the child is born in the US, then it will be considered to be a US citizen, irrespective of the illegal status of its parents.

There are one way to become a naturalized citizen. A person that was born outside the United States to parents who aren't citizens of the US. Explanations: A child born in the USA from parents who are both already US citizens do NOT need "naturalized". All are natural citizens. A child outside the US if both parents are US citizens is accepted as a US citizen. A child born in a US possession if one parent is a US citizen qualifies for natural US citizenship.
