HR 1360 is now on the House floor. Debate on this legislation has begun and shall last for no less than 72 hours.

This bill is a xenophobic end run, plain and simple. I will vote NAY on this bill.

[Wikipedia delenda est]

As others have said, this bill is nothing more than pure xenophobia.

[Coastal Elitist]

As others have said, this bill is nothing more than pure xenophobia.

How so?

[Vern]

If I was still in the House, I would not support this one bit.

[Sirius_]

I cannot support this, due to the lack of reasons given to, as well as the possibility to create stateless children.

[Esteemed Jimmy]

This resolution does not follow House rules for a Constitutional amendment.

[P. Clodius Pulcher did nothing wrong]

Why was this even put on the floor?

[OSR stands with Israel]

This bill is unconstitutional

I fixed the wording and formatting of this as well as removed some unnecessary wording.

The amendment is friendly.

This amendment is designed to close the birth tourism loophole which some foreign nationals have exploited to skirt our countries immigration laws. Birth Tourism has allowed some people to get their kids Atlasia citizenship and made it easier for themselves to gain Atlasian citizenship by having their kids born in Atlasia despite potentially having few formal ties to this country. No one should has an inherent right to become a citizen of this county. As a nation we should have the power to make our own decisions on who to admit as our countries citizens.

Atlasian citizens, surely? And Atlasian immigration laws? "are countries" ?!?!

The proposed amendment is frivolous and will not be considered.

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

This bill is a xenophobic end run, plain and simple. I will vote NAY on this bill.

I would point out that in large measure the attempts by established figures to avoid having debates about say economic based or merit based immigration approaches and so forth and the labeling of all dissent from the uniformly embraced neoliberal position of high immigration is always good immigration, is in large measure what has fed the rise in serious xenophobia and racism where such did not have to be the case.

The greatest mistake the establishment has ever made, has been to put all of its eggs in a single basket on immigration and likewise on trade. What happens is that people will look elsewhere for answers and the end result is you get a bag of cheetos instead of an egg.
