I am introducing a Constitutional Amendment to end Birthright Citizenship.
Under current interpretations of American law, anyone born on American soil automatically becomes a U.S. citizen, regardless of whether the parent was here legally or not. This is wrong and not at all the intent of those who wrote the 14th Amendment.
We are a country filled with immigrants, and legal immigration is valuable and should be protected. But we are also a country whose borders have been too open and our generosity exploited too often. President Trump has moved to seal our border from illegal immigrants more than any other president.
But we will have more to do.
We need to make sure that only children born to legal residents of the U.S. are automatically citizens. I have supported protecting birthright citizenship from abuse since the beginning of my tenure in the Senate, when I cosponsored the Birthright Citizenship Act of 2011, and now I am proposing an amendment to protect United States citizenship in case the Supreme Court fails to address this issue correctly.
@EricLDaugh@gypsyglampin Dissolve the states and reassemble them right and left.
The left states will be a drug-ridden welfare union within days.
The divide must happen.
@EricLDaugh Supend all tourist visas, until congress acts to pass a bill stopping anchor babies. Continue kicking out the parents. If they would like to take their American child with them, okay.
@EricLDaugh@AmericannMan Citizens born abroad have residency requirements. Thanks to the Supreme Court illegals do not. That's unconstitutional and discriminatory.
@EricLDaugh@tlyles77txgal Yep, the experiment in self governance known as the US Constitution is over. SCOTUS has elevated itself over every US Citizen & Territory…what a clown show!
🚨 WOW! VP JD Vance CALLS OUT Supreme Court Justice Amy Coney Barrett for upholding birthright citizenship for illegal aliens
REPORTER: Some conservatives are angry with Barrett. Are you one of them?
VANCE: "Do I think she made a mistake in the ruling? I do! I don't know how ANYBODY can say that if a person who is an illegal alien or a person, for example, who's pregnant and comes to the United States on a vacation, they have a baby and all of a sudden their entire family gets the benefits of American citizenship?!"
"I DON'T think that's what the framers of the 14th Amendment had in mind. I don't think it's the right case."
"But look, it was 5-4. Sometimes the Supreme Court makes mistakes. We're going to try to correct that mistake, but nobody's perfect, including the Supreme Court."
@EricLDaugh The quickest way to fix the Birthrate Citizenship issue is to ban all pregnant foriegners from entering US, only allow non-pregnant foriegn women a three month visa (with bond they forfeit if they do not leave on time), and acceleration of mass deportation of all illegal aliens!
