Vance: Supreme Court’s Close Birthright Citizenship Vote Shows ‘Concept of Birthright Citizenship Hanging by a Thread’

During an interview with Fox News host Laura Ingraham on The Ingraham Angle, Vance expressed that the Supreme Court’s ruling was a “major, major mistake.” Vance pointed out that pregnant foreign nationals can come to the United States “on a vacation, give birth” and then their child and family “have the full benefits of American citizenship.”

“One of the things we’re going to have to do is just continue to enforce the border,” Vance said. “This is a very disappointing ruling from the Supreme Court, of course we respect it, but we also think it was a major, major mistake. As Justice’s Alito and Thomas pointed out. One of the things it might invite is people to come here, quite literally on a vacation, give birth and then all of a sudden, the child and their family have the full benefits of American citizenship. It’s just a preposterous ruling.”

While Vance acknowledged that many conservatives were disappointed by the Supreme Court’s ruling, he pointed out that “a lot of legal experts expected this case to go the wrong direction by 7-2, or even 8-1.”
