Sounds reasonable.
Were many Hong Kong residents were able to obtain Brithish citizenship prior to the handover in 1997?

"This court is not imposing 'citizenship by judicial fiat.' The action is required by the mandate of the Fourteenth Amendment as construed and applied by Supreme Court precedent," wrote Judge Clark Waddoups in the US District Court for the District of Utah. |

American Samoans living in Utah brought the suit in 2018, arguing that being "non-citizen nationals," instead of US citizens closed the door to some employment opportunities and didn't allow them to vote, among other rights afforded to US citizens. Their passports also include a disclaimer that reads: "The bearer is a United States national and not a United States citizen." "It doesn't feel very good when the federal government says you're American, but not quite the same as other Americans, just a little bit different. Just being able to say they're real American citizens, I think that goes a long way, in addition to being able to vote," Weare said. |
