I hope that this is just a sign of impending general enforcement.

The 14th Amendment was not intended to convey citizenship to people who do not owe allegiance to the United States. That's why it reads, "All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the state wherein they reside."

If the writers of the 24th Amendment had intended to include, for example, birth tourists, there would have been no need to add "and subject to the jurisdiction thereof."

We can of course apply our laws to tourists. If necessary we can imprison and then deport them. But imprisoning them does not transform them into citizens, it merely makes them criminal aliens whom we will deport.
