right now we have chinese tourists entering to establish anchor baby status. They aren’t claiming refugee clearance. Such pregnant women should be denied travel visas to the US until their pregnancy is over.
And we have illegal immigrants breaking into the country and dropping a kid and also claiming ties to this land.
Not much different than breaking into your home and demanding a room as a squatter.
In the early nineties, I have a relative who worked very high up in the Los Angeles County hospital, near downtown Los Angeles.
At that time over 90% of all babies delivered at that hospital were the children of illegal aliens.
This person used to answer calls from Mexico, inquiring about what services would be provided to them, if they showed up.
I’d amend the constitution to read that birthright citizenship is for all children of American citizens and legal residents in process for citizenship* born on US soil.
That would eliminate birthright for the children of illegals and the children of Chinese and other ‘birth tourists.”
*in the process for citizenship excludes students, brasseros, work exchanges, diplomats, agents.
