What is the name of the law for illegal alien having a citizen baby?

The concept is called jus soli, which is Latin for "law of the soil". It's the idea that being born on the land of a country makes you a citizen of that country.In the US, for example, jus soli is applied to the 14th Amendment of the Constitution. The 14th says, long story short, that anyone born in US territory and subject to US laws is a US citizen. In the Supreme Court case US v. Wong Kim Ark, the Court ruled that since the 14th Amendment doesn't specify that the parents have to be citizens too, anyone born in the US and subject to US laws (so no diplomats kids- diplomats have "diplomatic immunity" and aren't subject to US law) is automatically a citizen.

Short Term: Legal codes of segregation, enacted literacy requirements, voter-registration laws, poll taxes. Long Term: Segregation until the late 20th century, allowed for racial unjustices and prejudices to remain and thrive, despite the 14th amendment. Sharecropping was economically confined, controlled by landlords, and kept in debt Overall, Blacks were still treated as inhuman and undeserving of basic rights, especially in the deep south.
