RE: Amend the Constitution, put an end to this nonsense

That is what Ted Cruz proposes.

You realize what a long, painful process this will be, without any assurance that it will be amended.

You’ll need 2/3 of both Houses of Congress to agree to have a NATIONAL REFERENDUM, and 38 states have to be in favor of the change.

We may not need to amend the Constitution. Why not pass the bill introduced by Steve King in January, HR 140, to eliminate birthright citizenship and see what happens if it gets legally challenged.

Every year for more than a decade bills have been introduced to eliminate birthright citizenship, sometimes with up to 100 sponsors.

Ted Cruz is being ingenuous. He would really not discuss the issue of birthright citizenship. Someone should ask him if he supports David Vitter’s bill to eliminate birthright citizenship, a bill that has also been introduced in the House by Steve King.
