re: #71 wrenchwench

That’s not what you said in #46. You would deny citizenship to the baby of asylum seeker who is born before Mom turns herself in (there is a time limit, but it’s like a year, IIRC).

You know, I’m going to say something here. Our status quo on birthright citizenship works. The precedent on birthright citizenship has been around since the Wong Kim Ark decision in 1898. It’s worked. What we should agree on is strengthening the ports of entry but we should also be making immigration easier and more affordable. We want to fancy ourselves as this great country and land of opportunity, let’s be that land.
