Summary

President-elect Donald Trump has announced a day-one policy to end birth citizenship. Currently, under U.S. law, a person is granted U.S. citizenship if they’re born in the country. Trump argues this creates an incentive for illegal immigration, or for a woman to simply travel to the United States from another country when she is pregnant. And if the child is born on American soil, then it opens the door to various social benefits and chain migration. We’ll discuss this topic and others in this episode of Crossroads. *Views expressed in this video are opinions of the host and guests and do not necessarily reflect the views of The Epoch Times.     ⭕️ 🇺🇸Josh's Special Offer👉 https://ept.ms/JoshSpeicalOffer ⭕️ Support our fight for the truth👉 https://donorbox.org/crossroads
