Birthright Citizenship Act of 2007
Birthright Citizenship Act of 2007 (HR 1940) Has 57 Co-Sponsors Bug Your Congressman To Sign On
Time to push for some serious reform and that could start with the end of the abuse of the 14th amendment to the Constitution that is currently being used to allow children of illegal aliens to be born American citizens.
The fact of the matter is that if the parents are illegal aliens and they sneaked into this country illegally, then they are criminals and should be deported. Just because they happen to have a baby here should not give that baby automatic US citizenship which then allows the parents to claim hardship for legal status and allows them to obtain millions of taxpayer dollars in services for their anchor baby.
The 14th amendment was introduced into the Constitution to allow slaves to become US citizens after the emancipation. Since then it has been misused for decades to allow literally millions of illegal alien anchor babies - and their illegal parents and families - to remain in this country.
So far HR 1940, the Birthright Citizenship Act of 2007 introduced in April, 2007 to end the practice of abuse of birthright citizenship, has 57 cosponsors. It was introduced by Representative Nathan Deal of Georgia.
