Supplementary notes

The source adds the following information: "Lo “Ius Soli” riguarda l’acquisizione della cittadinanza italiana da parte di figli di stranieri come conseguenza della nascita su territorio italiano. In poche parole, chi nasce in Italia acquisisce automaticamente la cittadinanza italiana, a prescindere da quella dei suoi genitori. Lei voterebbe a favore o contro questa norma?"
