>> Once they reach the age of 23 they can then petition to have their parents immigrate lawfully as immediate relatives <<
And THAT provision, my FRiend, can be changed directly, easily and unambiguously by simple statute. Congress passes and POTUS signs. Period.
In other words, main problem could be solved without all the current hysterical and pointless discussion about the constitutionality of birthright citizenship.
Quite right. It is completely within congresses powers to prioritize which immigrants get to the front of the line(Or in line at all).
Right now, immediate relatives go to the front of the line (thanks to Ted Kennedy and the immigration act of 1965). It was never like that before.
How about we again prioritize immigrants that might actually contribute something to the nation instead of old and busted immediate relatives.
