Trump Vows To End Birthright Citizenship And Give 'Dreamers' A Way To Stay In The U.S.
Posted • December 8, 2024: In a wide-ranging interview with NBC's Kristen Welker on Meet the Press, President-elect Donald Trump discussed immigration extensively. My colleague Teri Christoph has the rundown on what he said about the more kinetic part of the equation: rousting a few million illegals out of the US and sending them home. The part that struck me as the most interesting was Trump's deeper dive into our extremely dysfunctional immigration system. A lot of people don't want to hear it, but there is very little illegal immigration to places that don't let the illegals stay. Europe has accomplished this by creating very, very loose "asylum" standards supported by an extraordinarily generous social welfare system that allows migrants to do nothing and get paid for it. We, being Americans, have gone about creating the illegal immigration magnet in a different way.
We recognize being born on American soil as granting American citizenship. That, in turn, allows parents and siblings to stay legally. Inevitably, our "family reunification" policy brings in more folks. The term "anchor baby" causes aneurysms on the permissive immigration side of the debate, but they are a fact. While there has been widespread acquiescence to an interpretation that says a child born to an illegal is a citizen, there is nothing in our law that says that and a great deal that says just the opposite. Read this excellent essay on why birthright citizenship is not a constitutional right. I don't know if executive action will be sufficient to change our direction because it will be open to reversal by any future president. I think the clearest course of action would be a legal case that results in "y'all can do that if you want to, but there is no constitutional reason to support birthright citizenship." (…)
