Birthright citizenship, and its troublesome by-product birth tourism (internationals are gaming the system fraudulently), emerges in discussions about immigration. President Trump has already issued an executive order seeking to suspend birthright citizenship, and this has produced reactions re what’s constitutional ala the 14th Amendment, what’s moral, what does it mean to be a citizen of the U.S.? Discussing birthright citizenship is not ipso facto anti-immigration. All of our ancestors were at some point immigrants, even Native Americans if you reach back far enough. And discussing birthright citizenship is not ipso facto anti-humanitarian, uncompassionate, much less racist. In fact, birthright citizenship is rare. Only 30 countries out of 194 offer automatic birthright citizenship. So, what should the U.S. do?
