Ban Birthright Citizenship

Liberty
1

Birthright citizenship was enacted when our founders wanted as many immigrants as possible to build our new country.

This should have been banned two decades ago.

One parent needs to be a citizen for the child to be one.

I’ve known OB/GYNs who had to deliver babies whose mother had just come into the country eight months pregnant – have their baby for free on our tab – then leave with their American citizen to come back whenever they please.

It would de incentivize the desire to come here illegally.

There are Asian companies called “Birth America “ that train people how to go through the process… It’s sick.

(There were no planes in the past when this started !!!)

I read the title on my way in and presumed I was going to disagree. Nope. You’re exactly right. People are openly exploiting loopholes in our systems and it needs to be stopped.

Your suggestion of at least 1 parent must be a US citizen would stop this exploit.

So, if I understand correctly, birthright citizenship would still exist for people who are already citizens, passing on their citizenship to their children, but not for the pregnant foreign lady waddling off the plane to give birth to a ticket to her own American residency/ citizenship via a back door, yes?

I think that’s a really good solution.:slightly_smiling_face:

:us::statue_of_liberty: BIRTHRIGHT CITIZENSHIP EXPLAINED :statue_of_liberty::us:

:scroll: The Constitution, Congress, and the US Supreme Court are crystal clear: being born on American soil doesn’t automatically grant citizenship! :no_entry_sign::baby:

:open_book: In Elk v. Wilkins (1884), the Supreme Court denied birthright citizenship to an American Indian, ruling merely being born in the US isn’t enough. Citizenship requires being born subject to US jurisdiction. :scroll::busts_in_silhouette:

:books: United States v. Wong Kim Ark (1898) clarified the phrase “subject to the jurisdiction” means being required to obey US law. This interpretation granted US citizenship to some children born of foreigners on American soil (known as jus soli), as long as their parents were legally present. :memo::white_check_mark:

:bulb: Fun fact: Native Americans had to wait until the Indian Citizenship Act of 1924 to be granted US citizenship by Congress. :sunrise_over_mountains::national_park:

:lock: This historical truth and legal principle remain unchanged. No legislation or amendment has altered this fact. :scroll::closed_lock_with_key:

:thinking: Some people confuse “subject to the jurisdiction” with “under the jurisdiction.” The former refers to those owing allegiance to the nation, while the latter encompasses all individuals within our borders. :earth_americas::handshake:

:alarm_clock: In the 1960s, under the leftist Great Society initiatives, the federal government expanded and reinterpreted immigration law, FALSELY claiming citizenship for babies born to illegal aliens. We must take action and deport the parents and the children who wrongly believe otherwise. :passport_control::no_entry_sign:
