It takes another SCOTUS ruling or a CA t change that
United States v. Wong Kim Ark in 1898 interpreted the 14h Amendment to apply to anyone born in the US (other than a diplomat's child)
Prior to US v Wong Kim Ark, the Supreme Court's 1873 Slaughterhouse Cases decision contained the conclusion that "The [14th Amendment] phrase, 'subject to its jurisdiction,' was intended to exclude from its operation children of ministers, consuls, and citizens or subjects of foreign states born within the United States."
As with Dobbs overturning Roe v Wade, it just takes a new court to decide US v Wong Kim Ark was wrongly decided. The cleaner method is a Constitutional Amendment
