You aren’t going to undo the citizenships already allowed.
I would oppose that. Citizenship is a permanent status. Once you let the government decide it can revoke citizenship, then it’s not a far stretch to revoke it for enemies of the state and not a much further jump to YOU being an enemy of the state.
The current administration already believes us to be potential enemies to oppose.
I do think we should end the fiction that the 14th provides for anchor babies going forward.
What to do with the children is easy enough: parents can take them back home where they can legally re-enter once emancipated as an adult, or, they can turn them over to foster care on their way out.
Right—I agree with that completely.
Yup, Ziravan. Once a baby has the citizenship, by ex post facto alone, I don’t think American citizenship can be removed. But that doesn’t give the illegal alien parents citizenship. Maybe the threat of removing the baby from the parents and deporting them, if they did not return as a family to Mexicoy would make most of them decamp. But when the U.S. citizen child was an adult, that child could voluntarily return to the U.S. and his parents could then enter legally as parents and immediate family of an American child and eventually attain citizenship, as could any brothers and sisters born in Mexico after the family returned.
