Federal Courts have supported the automatic citizenship of Anchor Babies (except for foreign diplomat babies) since the 1890s.

Not according to Ann Coulter.

Justice Brennan's footnote gave us anchor babies.

Re: "Justice Brennan's footnote gave us anchor babies."

Ann Coulter was referring to the implied rights of the parents of Anchor Babies to qualify for welfare benefits on behalf of the baby and to remain in the USA to care for the baby.

I believe the courts have ruled - after her 2010 essay - that parents of an Anchor Baby have no implied right to remain in the USA.

Is that law enforced? I have no idea.
