Yes everyone (both US and other nations). For instance if a US citizen is in the military and stationed in Germany,(or other nations) and their family was also in Germany with them and a child was born is the child a German citizen or a US citizen or both? In the US we celebrated our 250th anniversary but Spanish peoples have lived in the Americas for over a half a millennia (536 years since 1492). As time went on and the different nations borders and laws changed places that use to be Mexico are now US soil. What took place across the years is for instance if you have citizens of one nation who married citizens of anther nation their children could be born in either nation depending on where they were at the time of the child's birth and the child would have duel citizenship. In parts of Texas and other states, which was once Mexico and Spain across time you have US citizens whose spouses are both US, Mexican or both(duel citizenship). In 1948 when a member of my family was born in Mexico they were both citizens of the US and Mexico(duel) because their mother was a US citizen born in Robstown Texas to US parents and the father was born in Matamoros Mexico. She went into labor and gave birth in Mexico while visiting relatives from her husbands side of the family.

Does illegal immigration contribute to expensive housing in the USA?
| Yes, illegal immigration contributes to higher housing prices in the USA by increasing demand, but it is one factor among several—and not the dominant long-term driver. The effect is real due to basic supply-and-demand economics, though its magnitude varies by location, time period, and housing supply elasticity. Restrictive land-use regulations, zoning, high construction costs, interest rates, and underbuilding since the 2008 crisis play larger roles in the overall affordability crisis. foxbusiness.com Demand Shock from Population Growth: Illegal (unauthorized) immigrants add to the U.S. population and household formation, directly boosting demand for housing units.

While I disagree with these three Justices, they based their disagreement on the original INTENT of the Amendment, which was to confer and codify citizenship status on all former slaves. Nothing scary at all, just a legal disagreement over limiting the application to it's original intention or recognizing that our Constitution is a 'living' document that evolves over time.
Congress cannot change the Constitution. They can write and Amendment but that must be ratified by the appropriate number of States within a designated time period.
