I did my internship at LA County USC med center in the 80’s.
during my month of OB we joked we “made more citizens then a Federal Judge”. We regularly had emergency deliveries as the illegals would sit in their cars until they were just about crowning to insure they would deliver asap once they came inside ( San Diego county would cart them to the border if at all possible, this was before EMTALA).
The ONE quiet night we had on call, in the AM when we went outside we noticed a green van parked near the entrance to the Womans Hospital, they must have thought it was an Immigration vehicle and took off. The residents joked they should pool their money and buy one, for an occasional easy night on call.
I’m sure today it’s far far worse. Unless the border is somehow enforced America as we have known it is doomed. No border, no country.
I could not imagine then why children born to illegal aliens were somehow granted citizenship.
Still can't now.
