Thread: Barrage of GOP Bills Would Deny Citizenship to U.S Born Kids

PHOENIX, Ariz.—A national coalition of GOP lawmakers is planning a new push to change the interpretation of the U.S. Constitution to deny citizenship to the U.S.-born children of undocumented immigrants.

In Arizona, state Senator. Russell Pearce, R-Mesa a longtime crusader against illegal immigration whose legislative efforts include the controversial SB 1070, announced the 14-state campaign at a press conference on Tuesday. He said he plans to introduce an Arizona bill revoking the right of children born in the United States to have automatic U.S. citizenship, regardless of their parents’ status, at the new legislative session that begins in January.

This is not the first time that Pearce has supported repealing “birthright citizenship,â€

Stopping taxpayer funded benefits for the offspring of illegal aliens surely would prevent many illegals from coming here in the first place and would likely cause many many more to self deport. Stopping birthright citizenship would restore funds back to our states and prevent our hospitals from going bankrupt. Resources would once again be available for our kids in our schools, instead of going to ESL programs. Restore America-end birthright citizenship NOW.

He said SB 1070 and a slew of other anti-immigration Arizona laws have already had a detrimental impact on health care access for U.S.-born children of undocumented immigrants. A new bill challenging the very concept of birthright citizenship could make things even worse, Galindo-Elvira said.

TOUGH NOOGIES!
