DeSantis Joins Trump On Banning Birthright Citizenship

The Hill reports:

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, a leading Republican presidential candidate, vowed to end birthright citizenship as a part of his immigration plan released Monday. “We will take action to end the idea that the children of illegal aliens are entitled to birthright citizenship if they are born in the United States,” the plan, which is titled “No Excuses,” reads.

Like DeSantis, former President Trump vowed last month to end birthright citizenship for children born in the U.S. to parents who entered the country illegally. However, most immigration experts argue that a president does not have the authority to end birthright citizenship because it is enshrined in the Constitution.

LMAO this clown went to Harvard Law school and should know the Constitution a little better, particularly the 14th Amendment.
But you needn’t take my word for it. Birthright citizenship was defined and affirmed by the SCOTUS in 1898, in US v. Wong Kim Ark:https://t.co/OAYLAAteLy
