ABD Başkanı Donald Trump, doğum yoluyla ABD vatandaşlığı kazanımını durdurmaya yönelik bir kararnameyi imzalamaya hazırlanıyor.
DOĞUM YOLUYLA ABD VATANDAŞLIĞI KALKIYOR!
Axios.com'un haberine göre Trump, ABD vatandaşı olmayan anne babadan doğan bebeklerin Amerikan toprağında doğum yoluyla vatandaşlık hakkı elde etmeleri uygulamasına son veren bir kararnameyi imzalamayı planlıyor.
Diğer yandan, bu yolla vatandaşlığı savunanların, Trump'ın ABD'de doğum yoluyla vatandaşlık elde etmeyi bir kararname ile sona erdirme hakkı olup olmadığı konusunu mahkemeye taşıması bekleniyor.
US President Donald Trump plans to sign an executive order that would remove the right to citizenship for babies of non-citizens and unauthorized immigrants born on U.S. soil, he said in an exclusive interview for "Axios on HBO" a new four-part documentary news series debuting on HBO this Sunday.
This would be the most dramatic move yet in Trump's hardline immigration campaign, this time targeting "anchor babies" and "chain migration."
And it will set off another stand-off with the courts, as Trump’s power to do this through executive action is debatable to say the least.
Trump told "Axios on HBO" that he has run the idea of ending birthright citizenship by his counsel and plans to proceed with the highly controversial move, which certainly will face legal challenges.
"It was always told to me that you needed a constitutional amendment. Guess what? You don't," Trump said, declaring he can do it by executive order.
When told that's very much in dispute, Trump replied:
"You can definitely do it with an Act of Congress. But now they're saying I can do it just with an executive order."
"We're the only country in the world where a person comes in and has a baby, and the baby is essentially a citizen of the United States, with all of those benefits" Trump continued. "It's ridiculous. It's ridiculous. And it has to end."
"It's in the process. It'll happen, with an executive order."
