It has actually be argued that this is infact NOT what the 14th means.
Section 1. All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.
Key word is Jurisdiction. Does the US Governemnt really have jurisdiction over illegal immigrants?
Was not until June 15th, 1982 that Illegals were able to be citizens (Plyler vs. Doe). Also, this decision did not directly pertain to "anchor babies". It was implied and infered. Isn't this about the time that illegal immigration exploded?
This decision needs to be revisited!
The dissenting minority agreed in principle that it was unwise for illegal alien children to be denied a public education, but the four dissenting justices argued that the Texas law was not so objectionable as to be unconstitutional; that this issue ought to be dealt with through the legislative process; that "[t]he Constitution does not provide a cure for every social ill, nor does it vest judges with a mandate to try to remedy every social problem"; and that the majority was overstepping its bounds by seeking "to do Congress' job for it, compensating for congressional inaction".

Remove the perks, and the illegals will go home. Yes, one of the HUGE perks, is that they can work with very little fear of negative consequences. However, things such as the judicial crap we have called the anchor baby problem. The 14th amendment was specifically written to NOT apply to illegals. It is the "way" the supreme court has "interpreted" it (i.e. ignoring the original wording, and making it into something that the court wanted it to say).

Well, something needs to be done. I am a nurse and I see this all day long. These young women are ALL pregnant, all in NEED of services, maternity care, labor and delivery services, and then the follow up care, feeding, and supply of just about anything and everything once they have given birth. They are clogging up the L &D's of our country, and we're just handing it over to them. They are also in our local health departments receiving year's suppies of birth control (which they just seem to "forget" to use), free counseling, home visits, WIC, you name it, car seats, and don't forget, follow up medical care for their children. It's the new welfare class! Meanwhile, "papa" is out on the construction job and can never be found to be found at the birth. And none of them are married - none. These are all single mothers giving birth to illegitimate children, many of them as young as 14.
I have to ask .. .we don't tolerate this with our own young people -- I mean, we expect as a society for young people to be educated first, married, and able to support themselves and a family before becoming pregnant. These young aliens are NONE of these. They are rampantly having children they cannot support -- just expecting US to pick up the bill because, well, they're here picking lettuce and mowing our lawns. They just walk in and expect it.
This is a travesty and amounts to thievery of our local health care systems and tax base. I don't see how this is just happening everywhere, without outrage from the American taxpayer. I tell you, as a country, we are ASLEEP.

While we are at it let's make it retroactive back to the 1986 travesty-opps I mean 'amnesty'.
Make the parents prove that they were here legally when they dropped the little b@stards* in the lap of the taxpayers to feed, house and educate.
Let's do an audit of the social system and send bills to the country that they came from.
Anyone know the figures that a state funded child costs the taxpayers by the age of 21? I want to say a quarter of a million dollars but that may be off.
*I'm speaking in the legal (receiving food stamps and welfare term.) even though in many cases the father is still quite in the picture.

WISH IT WAS RETROACTIVE. BUT IF WE WANT THIS WE WILL HAVE TO FIGHT FOR IT SINCE THERE IS A CLAUSE IN THE BILL THAT STATES IT IS NOT RETROACTIVE.Join our efforts to Secure America's Borders and End Illegal Immigration by Joining ALIPAC's E-Mail Alerts network (CLICK HERE)
