If you’re born here you should get a birth certificate. I really don’t see how Texas can get away with this.
*********************************
People born in Texas DO get birth certificates. They are done by the hospitals.
The illegals filing the suit have no documentation that proves their kids were born in Texas OR the US.
See that very fact changes the whole contect of theargument. It wasn’t about not issuing the birth certificates alone. It was about parents not having any ID to provewho they are so a VALID birth certificate can be issued. Of course, facts don’t matter to the leftists. They just want what thwe want and if they don’t get it expect: a) social media attacks from lefties en masse, b) lawyers, and/or c) political activism.
Just another enemy of America
These US born anchor citizens are legally entitled to their birth certificates and could get them - when they are of legal age, or via a legally-appointed guardian.
The problem here comes with the parents, NOT US Citizens - ILLEGALS, in meeting their valid proof of identity and origin (i.e., the Texas State Department of Vital Records has said a Mexican consular ID is not an original and valid document).
I agree with the DVR. The kids can wait or they can get a guardian who is legal and provides the proper legal documents.
You can’t control the natives anymore,Bawanna!
Sounds like they’re looking for hospital birth records.
“I don’t like the anchor baby crap but being born here makes on a citizen. There’s no getting around it.”
Not originally. “Anchor baby” is a relatively recent concept, and was created out of thin air, much like the “right to privacy” that was interpreted into the Constitution, but, of course, in actuality it isn’t there. They used that fictional Constitutional “right to privacy” to legalize abortion.
It is the words/requirement of ‘and subject to the jurisdiction thereof’ that these wannabe moochers don’t pay any attention. Most of them probably can’t even read and/or understand that phrase let alone have any legal intentions for abiding by such.
Sorry, but the 14th Amendment and Wong Arc make it clear that the parents must have legal US residency for there to be birthright citizenship for children.
Throughout US Law there is the principal that you cannot legally gain from an illegal act. Breaking immigration laws is therefore a reason for both the parents and the child to be denied citizenship........
You have separated the chaff from the grain. Many if not most people like the illegal immigrants have not done such. I suspect they do not because they want to intentionally contaminate the grain.
That was kind of harsh, don’t you think?
Nonsense. "Subject to the jurisdiction thereof" eliminates an invader's child's citizenship. These are foreign nationals. Their offspring are subject to Mexican jurisdiction, not American. If the Mexican Ambassador's wife gave birth in a NYC hospital, would anyone ever argue the child was American? Preposterous. All the more preposterous that a pregnant Mexican here ILLEGALLY, who merely spreads her legs and drops a baby a mile across the border has created a new American citizen.
This is where the law is colliding with the law. The parents do not have proper ID (required by law), therefore, no legal document can LEGALLY be turned over. It is ironic that the ID laws can de-rail the whole anchor baby thingy.
Retarded statement
Name another country that does this?
You were white, I suppose, but mostly, you were obviously an American. Which made you suspect.
Bingo. This was not meant to be used as it is now.
I was fine with that. I just wish I would have been told exactly what was required before I went to the office so I would not have had to go back 3 times this is what frustrated me the most.
“I was fine with that. I just wish I would have been told exactly what was required before I went to the office so I would not have had to go back 3 times this is what frustrated me the most.”
Yes, they screwed up not telling you exactly what to bring the first time. That would have ticked me off, too.
How is this news? If he didn’t side with illegals, it would be news.
