Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR) unveiled legislation on Wednesday that would bar children of illegal aliens, foreign terrorists, and foreign spies from becoming citizens through birthright citizenship, Breitbart News has learned exclusively.
“Criminals and terrorists have no right to take advantage of our citizenship laws for their own gain. This bill will protect United States citizenship and ensure it cannot be given under false pretenses,” Cotton said in an exclusive statement to Breitbart News.
Cotton has unveiled the Constitutional Citizenship Clarification Act, a bill that aims to enshrine in statute the “ambassadors and invaders” exceptions to birthright citizenship.
Essentially, enacting Cotton’s legislation would bar children of illegal aliens, foreign terrorists, and foreign spies from being entitled to birthright citizenship by amending Section 301 of the Immigration and Nationality Act to:
- Clarify that a “person born in the United States shall not be considered subject to jurisdiction of the United States in the person of alien parents who are —
- unlawfully present in the United States (illegal aliens)
- present in the United States for diplomatic purposes
- engaged in a hostile occupation of, or a hostile operation in, the United States
“Biden has also ordered ICE not to enforce immigration laws against pregnant “individuals,” allowing an illegal immigrant to stay in the United States until her child is born and granted birthright citizenship.
It’s a known fact by illegals that maryland is an ideal place for illegals births, frre medical ssn housing education at our expense and our great great great grandkids expense. It why it would be wise to leave md sooner then later.
This should also go for voting, medical assistance, housing to just name a few. The individual needs to be fully vetted and applied for citizenship before ANY hand outs are given. Also, they must learn english.
