Engaging Consular Immigrants

     Those opposed to ending the clause in the Birthright Citizenship Amendment will argue that… “The framers' intent was to create an objective basis for establishing citizenship—birth—not a subjective standard left to the whim of a majority. The United States has, for that reason, never struggled like other nations to integrate those born here” (Fitz, 2010). The thought process here is that those born natural citizens of the US from alien parents will always carry the stigma of having been the children of aliens. This could cause more undue injustice towards these people than the founding fathers wanted. After all, they were all alien to this soil.

Do you know that the number of illegal immigrants in the United States was estimated at 11.5 million in 2011 and now

To obtain citizenship for babies the Department of Immigration requires DNA proof of parenthood. This cannot be given in advance of any arrangements being made. Law society of NSW resident Mary Macken said “a uniform approach would make it easier for people to enter into domestic agreements and not be forced overseas.” This case shows us that the law is limping behind all this new technology so in my opinion the law needs to think ahead and have new laws ready for these new technologies.

The United States of America was a country founded by immigrants on the values of equality and freedom and the idea of a fresh start. Only American Indians are truly native to this country and the rest of us have some history of immigration in our ancestry. So what about today’s immigrants? Most people immigrate to the United States searching for simply searching for a better life. Immigration seems like it should be a simple and organized process, but many people who try to immigrate to the United States find that the process is not so simple. To better understand the immigration process, I have interviewed a friend who immigrated to the United States as a small child and now faces the

The president expressed in an interview with CNN that, “A woman gets pregnant. She is nine months, she walks across the border, she has the baby in the United States, and we take care of the baby for 85 years. I don't think so” (Maxwell 2015). In addition, “estimate show that around 36000 a year pregnant women with visas come to the United States to have their babies and take advantage of the fourteenth amendment” (Semotiuk 2016). Moreover, in 2015, Texas stopped giving birth certificates to parents who were not able to provide any legal document regarding their status (Semotiuk 2016).

*Select 2 different ethnic groups from the drop-down menu that says “All Countries”. What are the major trends in their immigration patterns over the past decades?

A big issue that surrounds the United States today is whether or not babies born on United States soil are to be considered full-fledged citizens or not, regardless of the family’s recent migration into the United States. The children born in the United States to illegal alien mothers are often referred to as "anchor babies”. Under current practice, these children are United States citizens at birth, simply because they were born on United States soil. They are called anchor babies because, as United States citizens, they become eligible to sponsor their relatives when they turn 21 years of age, thus becoming the legal United States "anchor" for an extended immigrant family (Shopper). Thus, the United States born children of illegal aliens not only represent additional U.S. population growth, but also act as anchors to eventually pull a large number of extended family members into the country legally; moreover, a whole industry has built up around the United States system of birthright citizenship, thousands of pregnant women who are about to deliver come to the United States each year from countries as far away as South Korea and as near as Mexico so that they can give birth on U.S. soil (Anchor Babies, NumbersUSA).The original intent of the 14th Amendment was clearly not considering illegal aliens going around the United States laws. Estimates indicate there may be over 300,000 anchor babies born each year in the United States; overall, causing illegal alien mothers to add

On the other side though I believe that the parents need to become a legal American citizen before they plan to have children in the United States as if they are illegal then their kids

The limitations on immigration of professionals that Buhler described have been largely dealt with by congressional action. That said; describe the ethical issues at stake regarding the hiring of resident alien professionals versus “native-born” Americans. Using the Buhler article as a springboard, do you believe that Buhler would consider colleges outside of the USA as a legitimate “pipeline”?

Two hours after I withdrew from the acclaimed J. C. West Academy of Fine Arts, my mother, the eminent Whitney West and I were enjoying lunch on the veranda of her country estate. In passing I told her what I had just done. She almost choked on her chicken salad sandwich. When she gained her composure, she says, Homer West Scooter, I didn’t raise an idiot, or maybe I did. Furthermore, I demand an explanation as to why my son the idiot left the Academy at the conclusion of their junior year and disgraced the family in such a vulgar manner.

There are many reasons why my family decided to leave their homes in Italy and make the move to America. There were many political and religious issues, along with towns and homes being overcrowded. My family were farmers looking for a change and the unification was rural along with the land management was poor. As my family did not have a lot of cash, we could only afford to buy tickets in the cargo area of the ship. The food was horrible as we were sailing to the new land. We ate a lot of potatoes, soup, and left overs. It was food to comfort us but not what I really wanted to eat.
