Banks Pushes Bill to End Birthright Citizenship | Indianapolis News

Senator Jim Banks just dropped a bold new bill to end birthright citizenship, arguing that kids born to undocumented parents shouldn’t automatically get U.S. citizenship — even though the Supreme Court just shut down the executive order route. His bill also targets fathers without legal status and surrogacy cases, framing the move as a defense of American sovereignty against “birth tourism” and illegal immigration. While he claims immigration hurts wages, housing, and safety — research shows mixed results — Banks is doubling down, echoing Trump-era rhetoric and pushing Congress to rewrite the rules, even as other lawmakers jump on board. The fight’s far from over. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
