AZ: Bill would deny ‘anchor baby’ birth certificates
Bill would deny ‘anchor baby’ birth certificates
The architect of Arizona’s new employer sanctions law, which takes effect Tuesday, is crafting a series of new measures aimed at those who enter the country illegally.
Rep. Russell Pearce, R-Mesa, said he is introducing measures this session to:
– expand the state crime of trespassing to cover anyone in this country without authorization.
– require proof of legal presence in this country to register a vehicle or get a vehicle title.
– deny workers’ compensation benefits to undocumented workers injured on the job.
– bar local communities from having policies that prohibit police officers from checking the immigration status of those they encounter.
Pearce also has some “cleanup’’ language for the sanctions bill. He said the current wording might allow employers who pay workers cash “under the table’’ to escape the potential loss of license that applies under the new law to anyone else who knowingly hires an undocumented worker.
But the most controversial — and legally questionable — part of Pearce’s package would deny regular birth certificates to babies born in Arizona unless at least one parent proves citizenship.
