Donald trump plans to end citizenship by birth..!?
Donald Trump's government is reportedly set to impose restrictions on birthright citizenship. US President-elect donald trump is set to take office in January. It has been reported that one of the measures to be taken by his government after taking charge is to restrict birthright citizenship. It has been reported that according to the plan published on his election campaign page, the citizenship granted to a person by birth in the united states will be removed. trump has stated on his campaign website that he will sign the executive order on his first day as president. According to Trump's campaign, children born to illegal residents receive birthright citizenship simply because they were born in the United States.
He has said that his government is going to remove it. But it is said to indirectly affect the children of various indians living there. He has said that he is going to bring about a change in the constitution to bring about change in the citizenship that children get by birth. It is said that cases may be filed against this in the court. However, it is said that the children of American indians living there are likely to lose their citizenship. Even if either parent is not an American or a permanent resident, their child born there is said to be denied US citizenship. According to the 2022 US Census, there are 4.8 million indian Americans living in the US. Of these, 34 percent, or 1.6 million, were born in the United States. Currently, the united states government has set a limit that only this percentage of people from certain countries can be granted green cards per year. But beyond that, there are reports that the number of applications from indians is high. A study published on US citizenship applications found that employment-based green card applications from india crossed 10 lakh as of march 2023.
So it is said that indians who have applied for a green card will take many years to get that green card. It is said that sometimes it can take even 50 years. So when these couples wait to apply for a green card and have a child there, their child does not get citizenship. Even if this family applied for a green card, the current number of applications shows that the children have no chance of getting a green card before they turn 21 years old. So after turning 21, those children can only stay in the U.S. if they get an international student visa without permanent citizenship or a green card, otherwise they will be sent back to their home country, legal experts say.
