“Please, Congress, put in a vote. Allow my childhood to continue instead of ending it by separating my family. “
Yes, Mexico is her parents' country. However it's Jasmine's too. She is only loosely speaking an "American". She's really a Mexican who was born here.
She's exploiting the wording of the Constitution. She is as much an American as, oh, as let's say Obama. Both he and Jasmine should return to their own countries.
By the way, you are way too generous suggesting a plane ticket. A bus ticket is might good enough. It would get her used to bus travel, a time honored tradition in Mexico, and reacquaint Jasmine with her roots.
Hey Jasmine, you don’t have to be separated from your parents, you can always go with them if it happens.
This was just another “BS” DACA commercial. It is all a lie because Obama created it to be a lie.

Actually it’s not even in the Constitution.
‘Anchor babies’ is the result of a poorly decided court case. The children of foreign nationals, whether they were ambassadors, visitors, or illegal aliens, were never covered before that decision.
That decision needs to be overturned.
First thing I thought. BS article.
Adios, Jasmine. Vaya con Dios!

Someone get the mini-violin out and post it. Thank you!
Mexico’s beautiful this time of year, Jasmine. Repatriate to the country of your parents and ancestors. You aren’t a U.S. citizen just because you’re an anchor baby. That’s just a leftist reinterpretation of our laws employed to swamp our country with masses of third worlders who know nothing about constitutional limited government, liberty, and personal responsibility. Adios and Feliz Navidad.
Exactly right. And I really think some 40-year-old lib wrote this, not an 11-year-old kid.
It’s likely not even a kid who actually wrote this.
Feliz Navidad, back in your legal country of residence...
I’m sorry kid but your parents have failed you. They made a giant error, totally disrespecting the law.
Sympathy for you is not a morally sufficient cause for disregarding their error. Laws cannot be turned on and off by sympathy, when they are the laws we have. We have a civilized society whose very basis is we will respect the law. Without it we do not have civilization; we have societies with no laws, just those in power and what they say goes.
To repair what has happened to our society by massive flagrant illegal activity against our immigration laws, we have to end such activity and to start we need to undo as much of the existing illegality that has occurred.
You are a victim, that’s true. Not of U.S. immigration law, but of the massive and flagrant disrespect of that law.
If your parents get deported, I suggest you go with your parents, and keep your family together. THAT will be more important to you in the long run.
Eleven years and mom hasn’t tried to become a citizen?
Tough luck, kiddo.
“Anchor baby Jasmine should want her parents to accept responsibility for breaking our immigration laws, and return to Mexico to apply for legal entry.”
In the case of those children brought into the US illegally as children, they would be deported with their parents back to their original homeland. Once these children are of age they can be put on a list, vetted as to their allegiance to our Constitution, and then allowed to come back.
If there is any record of illegality prior to or after deportation (including illegal reentry), the child is forbidden to return. If there is any illegality after they return they are to be deported and forbidden reentry.
seems to me her parents are in the us but not subject to its jurisdiction by being here illegally and their children born here should not be us citizens..at least that’s my take
they all should leave in a just world.
