The term anchor baby is incorrectly used here. As Cruz is a US citizen, her baby would have US citizenship even if born outside the US. “Anchor baby” refers to the US born child of two illegals.

She’s an American citizen? That’s news to me.

however the immigration reform law of 1996 did away with the anchor babies. Custody follows the PARENTS not the other way around.

When the illegal alien parents are deported, the citizen child goes with the parents and is permitted to come back at the age of 18. If they never return and they never live in the USA for at least 10 years, then their children do NOT automatically get us citizenship.

This is a garbage story typical of the leftists behind the scenes producing FNC.
