Keep it simple like that.
Read the article. Anchor babies are US citizens.
“...allowing illegal immigrants with American citizen children to get a tax credit...”
vs.
“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...”
Hmmmm. Seems it’s not just the Socialist Left that can hold 2 conflicting statements in their mind as the truth.
Nothing will change until the money runs out.................
It ran out in the USSR.
The bill as proposed does NOT require the submitting party (i.e., the illegal alien parents) to have a SSN. It only requires the application to include the SSN of the anchor babies. Since they are “legal” under the perverse court readings of Section 1 of the 14th Amendment, there is nothing ICE will be able to do to the illegal parents if this bill as written now becomes law. It’s the Senate that removed the House requirement for the SUBMITTER (the illegal alien parents) to have and include a valid SSN. Specifically it was that bastard Rubio from Florida, the east coast california. This whole thing is a slap in the face to U.S. citizens and another income redistribution scam and entitlement to benefit non-Americans here illegally. I can hear them celebrating in my neighborhood already. Civil wars have been started for less. And you all are worried about impeaching this hypocrite sellout SOB?
So amnesty and welcome for illegal aliens. In no manner should illegals be facilitated. Spot them, deport them.
Have always detested rubio. Is there a form of loathing that is even worse I can advance to?
Just think how many fools supported this child and his run for presidency. Makes me sick to think about.
Grr isn’t strong enough but what can we do that is legal? We’ve tried everything that is.
Out of control and has been for a long time.
The Republic is dead and oligarchy lives on.
This is an issue with birthright citizenship, not the child tax credit.
This is why we need the Line Item
Veto. Trump could take it out
My wife is pregnant with our fourth. The child tax credit helps out immensely, allowing her to stay at home and raise our kids while I bring home a paycheck.
I called Rubio's office and thanked him for standing up for working Americans. I'm glad he was successful on this.
We need to encourage American nuclear families to have more children and American wives to be stay-at-home moms to raise them. This is the only arrangement that has ever worked.
And anyone who wants to call me a freeloader for claiming the CTC, I'll kindly remind them having kids ain't cheap. Over the long haul I'll be paying plenty of taxes.
Jan Ting is another ‘educated Idiot”
These kids should never been allowed to become ‘citizens’. The 14th Amendment has been bastardized beyond belief.

$^&_#(*^!
The Uniparty will fight tooth and nail to keep the demographic changes they have made to the country through non-enforcement against the will of the citizens.
They are making US pay for the invasion of our country.
The socialist tax code. Rewarding those that don’t pay taxes to get a government handouts for their children. Welfare mommas are you listening? Tax credits for illegals? Those that have had their deductions for SALT eliminated can feel comfort in knowing that their hard earned money is going for handouts.
Require verification of citizenship of the children and of their parents for eligibility for the tax credit.
“Because of birthright citizenship, any children born to illegal aliens become automatic U.S. citizens. Thus, illegal aliens can still receive billions of dollars in tax credits for their U.S.-born children, Ting wrote in a post on the Center for Immigration Studies website.” [”pushed by Republican Sen. Marco Rubio”]
I sent donations to Rubio when he first ran in the primary for the Senate. There were some FReepers at the time who said that Rubio’s record in the Florida House showed he was weak on immigration. But I thought he would at least be better than Suntan Charlie Crist.
Now I’m not so sure.

There are no “illegal immigrants with American citizen children.”
The “Anchor Baby” is a leftist media creation, and absolutely nothing more.
