Wong's other three sons came to the United States between 1924 and 1926 and were accepted as citizens. Because of his citizenship, Wong Kim Ark's youngest son was drafted in World War II, and later made a career in the United States Merchant Marines. Current U.S. law on birthright citizenship (citizenship acquired at birth) acknowledges both citizenship through place of birth ("jus soli") and citizenship inherited from parents ("jus sanguinis"). Before "Wong Kim Ark," the Supreme Court had held in "Elk v. Wilkins" (1884) that birthplace by itself was not sufficient to grant citizenship to a Native American; however, Congress eventually granted full citizenship to American Indians via the Indian Citizenship Act of 1924. Restrictions on immigration and naturalization of Chinese were eventually lifted as a consequence of the Chinese Exclusion Repeal Act of 1943 (also known as the Magnuson Act) and the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1965. In the years since "Wong Kim Ark", the concept of "jus soli" citizenship has "never been seriously questioned by the Supreme Court, and [has] been accepted as dogma by lower courts". Citizenship cases since "Wong Kim Ark" have dealt mainly with situations falling outside the bounds of the Citizenship Clause—such as citizenship via "jus sanguinis" for foreign-born children of U.S. citizens, or circumstances under which U.S. citizenship may be lost. The "Wong Kim Ark" court's affirmation of "jus soli" as the primary rule determining United States citizenship has been cited in several Supreme Court decisions affirming the citizenship of U.S.-born individuals of Chinese or Japanese ancestry. The court's holding that the language of the Constitution should be understood in light of the common law has been cited in numerous Supreme Court decisions dealing with the interpretation of the Constitution or acts of Congress. The "Wong Kim Ark" court's understanding of Fourteenth Amendment jurisdiction was also cited in a 1982 case involving the rights of illegal immigrants. An unsuccessful effort was made in 1942 by the Native Sons of the Golden West to convince the Supreme Court to revisit and overrule the "Wong Kim Ark" ruling, in a case ("Regan v. King") challenging the citizenship status of roughly 2,600 U.S.-born persons of Japanese ancestry. The plaintiffs' attorney termed "Wong Kim Ark" "one of the most injurious and unfortunate decisions" ever handed down by the Supreme Court and hoped the new case would give the court "an opportunity to correct itself".
