• Ireland Amends Citizenship Laws The Irish electorate voted in favor of a constitutional amendment that modified citizenship criteria. The new law denies Irish citizenship to children born in Ireland unless one parent is an Irish citizen or the family has been legally resident for at least three years before the child's birth. This amendment was designed to close a perceived loophole that had allowed pregnant women to enter Ireland to secure citizenship for their children.
