According to a new survey, it has been observed that more than half of the Arizonans are of the view that children of undocumented children should not be given the citizenship of the U.S. The people are of the view that just because they are born in this country, they should be entitled to the citizenship of the country.
According to reports, a legislation is on its way to crafting, a draft which would forbid the state from granting birth certificates to the kids until and unless either of the parent proves his or her citizenship. Just presenting in the country (legally or in an undocumented manner) does not give them the right to have a U.S. citizenship. The findings are by Rasmussen Reports.
It was in the year 2008, when a similar bill was crafted, a draft which came into action to deal with “anchor babies.” But that proposal never got the green flag.
The problem is just not limited to Arizona. More than half of the people all over the nation are of the belief that just because the child is born in the U.S., it does not give him the right to be a U.S. citizen. Location of child’s birth should not become his criteria for gaining citizenship.
The aspect is just not limited to providing birth certifications. In broader senses, these children would not be given the additional benefits enjoyed by the citizens of the country. No official statement has been provided by the Immigration officials till now.
