Children of Immigrants Denied Citizenship - GMDino - 07-16-2015 In Texas. Can you believe it? http://www.texasobserver.org/children-of-immigrants-denied-citizenship/ Quote:For nearly 150 years, the United States, under the 14th Amendment, has recognized people born here as citizens, regardless of whether their parents were citizens. RE: Children of Immigrants Denied Citizenship - StLucieBengal - 07-16-2015 Good. Anchor babies shouldn't be allowed. Too many births coming here. Especially from China.

RE: Children of Immigrants Denied Citizenship - michaelsean - 07-17-2015 i always thought it was assumed that if you were born here you were a citizen. I didn't know that wasn't a thing until the 14th amendment. However, that shouldn't change the status of the parents.

Yeah, that was something they didn't want happening at first, and not just for the black population. The children of immigrant workers from all over (Chinese, Irish, etc.) were also kept out of the citizenry until then, which actually hurt their integration into society.
