GOP presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy said Friday he would deport the children of undocumented immigrants with their families, despite them already being U.S. citizens.
“There are legally contested questions under the 14th Amendment of whether the child of an illegal immigrant is indeed a child who enjoys birthright citizenship or not,” Ramaswamy said after a town hall in Iowa.
Ramaswamy is not the only GOP candidate to question U.S. citizenship rules. Former President Trump announced in late May that on his first day back in office, he would seek to end birthright citizenship by way of an executive order.
You do realize that birthright citizenship is almost entirely nonexistent in Europe, Asia, Africa, and Austrailia, right?
at no point in the history of america has “but yurop does it” been a suitable justification for a policy. We are specifically trying to be better than europe
Failing spectacularly I might add.
I m French and this is complete bullshit . If you re birth in France you are French at your 18 birthday.
An immigrant, in a country of immigrants, deciding he doesn’t like those that came after… 🤷🏼♂️
Truly the story of America, but not in the good way.
