New Poll Shows Two-Thirds of Americans Reject Birthright Citizenship
NumbersUSA Supports Bill to Abolish
Automatic Citizenship to Anchor Babies
A majority of Americans oppose birthright citizenship according to a new national poll. Are you among the 65% who oppose it?
NumbersUSA has pushed to abolish birthright citizenship since our founding 15 years ago. Today, we strongly support Rep. Steve King's (R-IA) Birthright Citizenship Act of 2011, which would stop this practice.
The bill is a solid proposal and has a lot of support in the U.S. House, with 80 co-sponsors. It is one of the "five great immigration solutions" we are supporting this year. However, we need a lot more momentum to win. We need your financial support.
Rep. King's bill, H.R. 140, would require Congress to clarify the meaning of the 14th Amendment to end the practice of automatically granting U.S. citizenship to all U.S.-born children of illegal aliens. We don't need a Constitutional amendment.
Now there's more proof that Americans want to abolish automatic citizenship for the children of illegal aliens.
A new Rasmussen poll shows that 65% of likely U.S. voters opposebirthright citizenship. That means two-thirds of all voters want to end this absurd practice, as most industrialized democracies have already done.
Just because an illegal alien mother gives birth in the U.S. doesn't mean the baby should be a U.S. citizen. Don't you agree? In fact, this form of birthright citizenship is destructive to the rule of law.
American citizenship is one of the most precious and sought-after privileges on earth. People wait in line for decades to receive a coveted U.S. green card, if they can get one at all. But we've corrupted the whole process by handing out citizenship and residency to people who do not deserve it.
Rep. King's Bill will solve the problem, but we can't push it through without more help from our members.

Back to birthright citizenship. I don't blame the kids, the so-called "anchor babies." Naturally they have no say in the matter of where they are born. Nonetheless, their unearned U.S. citizenship has terrible consequences for this country.
Here's what's so obviously wrong with birthright citizenship.
Rewards lawbreaking. If people break into our country only long enough to give birth, they are rewarded with a U.S. citizen child.
Increases chain migration. There are about 340,000 anchor babies born here each year. Their families often use them to bring more relatives into the country, starting new family "chains."
Immigration continues to skyrocket as a result.
Adds to government social costs. Illegal aliens aren't entitled to welfare benefits, open-borders advocates often point out. That's generally true (with the significant exception of emergency room healthcare). Their U.S. citizen children are eligible, however, for a galaxy of social benefits.We taxpayers are often stuck with the tab for medicaid health benefits, free education, food stamps, etc.
Misuses the U.S. Constitution. The 14th Amendment, on which birthright citizenship is based, states that people born in the U.S. who are also "subject to the jurisdiction" of this country are automatically citizens. Yet children born of parents illegally residing in the U.S. generally have automatic citizenship, voting privileges, and a passport from their home countries.Why should they also receive automatic citizenship from a country where their mother lives illegally? Absurd!
Don't Ever Give Up!
