Could have saved you/rest some time/bandwidth:

#1 - Enforce the EXISTING Laws
#2 - Terminate any/all welfare
#3 - Prosecute any/all lawbreak(ing|ers) and those enabling/abetting.
#4 - Read, defend, uphold the plain English reading of the 14th.

No eVerify (no authority), wall can wait for the ‘fall-out’ of the above.

W/o #1, more lawyer-speak is just useless mumbo-jumbo

“#1 - Enforce the EXISTING Laws”

Obviously, they can’t. I run across a few illegals most days, but unless I can check their status my suspicions mean nothing.

“#2 - Terminate any/all welfare”

Fat chance of that happening! If the government tried the crime wave would be unbelieveable. Think of Cape Town or Ciudad de Mexico.

“#3 - Prosecute any/all lawbreak(ing|ers) and those enabling/abetting.”

Even Goodlatte has good faith exceptions.

“#4 - Read, defend, uphold the plain English reading of the 14th.”

Someone left out the word now as the third word

“All persons NOW born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside.”

Right now:

“All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside.”

Mr. Griffin, were you born in the US?

Yes!

In which state do you reside?

Florida!

Then obviously you are a citizen of the US and of Florida.

“eVerify (no authority)”

The US government has the necessary and proper authority to protect a state from an invasion of Central American scofflaws.

As we know, millions can get past a border, especially one without a wall.

Also, the US has a $20 trillion debt and it can’t pay it without having most working people making wages high enough to be able to pay substantial taxes.
