Mexico warns Texas not to refuse its immigrants' babies U.S. birth certificates(GO AHEAD, Mexico)
fox news ^ | 8/27/15 | fox news latino

The Mexican government is warning that Texas’ denial of birth certificates for U.S. children born here to undocumented immigrants stands to imperil the relationship between Mexico and the Lone Star State.

The concern was raised in an amicus brief filed Monday evening to lend support to immigrants parents who sued Texas after being denied birth certificates for their U.S.-born children, even after showing their “matrículas,” the ID cards issued by the Mexican consulate to undocumented immigrants.

Mexico says the practice stands in stark contrast to the historical practice among countries to accept passports or other forms of ID to issue birth certificates.

[It] not only jeopardizes their dignity and well-being, but could threaten the unique relationship between Mexico and Texas, the Mexican government said in a brief tied to a lawsuit filed against the state by Texas Civil Rights Project and Texas Rio Grande Legal Aid.

The lawsuit, the Texas Tribune reported, was filed on behalf of six U.S. citizen children and their undocumented parents, who came from Mexico, Honduras and Guatemala. Other groups since have joined the suit.

A main point of contention is the all-out refusal at some county registrars offices to accept as a valid form of ID anything short of a U.S. visa or consulate ID card, the Tribune said.

“imperil the relationship between Mexico and the Lone Star State”

Like complaints against Trump, any change would be for the better.

Mexican citizens bill us for their living expenses and send their money home.

Chingar that!

Great place for the anti Iran A Bomb give away.

The Trump/Cruz discussion on illegal immigration needs to be on the border.

“I think we have found what Mexico fears: No new US citizens to send money back to Mexico “

Tax money leaving the state at a rate of 20%. Add city and local tax to that. They are paid in cash anyway.

Great questions not asked in America!

In a just world the media would be asking:

1. Why do your citizens have to cross the border to find opportunity, and in many cases just to have the simple necessities in life?
2. What steps is your government taking to help these people, and to help Mexico move forward economically?
3. When politicians in Mexico see Mexican citizens dying while trying to illegally enter the US, does that not make you embarrassed? Does that not make you feel some responsibility and guilt for failing to provide a hopeful enough environment for your own citizens such that they don’t feel compelled to take these risks - even with their children? Do you not feel shame?
4. Do you think it is fair that the US citizens are paying the bills for medical care, education, and social welfare of your citizens?
5. Why do you expect the US to do what you do not do on your southern border, and why do you treat the endogenous people of Chiapas, and the citizens of Central and South American countries so badly when they enter your country?
6. Do the children of Central and South American citizens who come into Mexico illegally receive automatic citizenship?
7. What are you doing to eradicate Mexican drug lords, and why do you not accept responsibility for all the hurt that these people cause?
7. Is it OK with you if Americans come over the border and vote in your elections?

The list goes on, but someone has got to start pointing the finger at the hypocrites in the Mexican government.

Don’t forget our hypocrites in the rat party and their GOPe party!
