Republican presidential candidate,
Donald Trump, has been talking about deporting illegal immigrants and
having them reenter the correct way. Trump, also wants to find some
way to eliminate anchor babies – babies born to women crossing the
border simply to have an American born child so both can remain
legally in the country. Because of these statements, we have heard
all kinds of rhetoric from opponents, like, “He wants to deport
American citizen children.”
No one wants to, or will, strip
citizenship from children born in this country, and will especially
not deport those children. But with proper government action, the
parents can be deported. Those parents can choose to leave their
children in the USA with relatives, or they can return with the
parents to their native country.
