No

America is filled with different cultures and to not allow people to live in the most free country is to defy the idea of this being the land of the free, and the home of the brave.

This country has been built by mostly immigrants and theyre should be no reason to keep people in cages or want to kill them only because theyre trying to live a better life.

Regardless of who you are you should be able to have citizenship in the United States. It is supposed to be a safe haven for people to have freedom, and especially innocent children, deserve the same rights that everyone else has.

Because children of illegal immigrants cannot choose who they are or where they were born, they should be granted legal citizenship if the plan is for them to remain there. It doesn't matter who their parents are or why they are there, they should be treated like anyone else.

Immigrants (legal and illegal) are the foundation of this country. Even the founding of this country could not occur without help from immigrants and refugees. In the early days of this country, immigrant labor built the railroads and boom towns. Now immigrants make up the working class. Supporting the rich who think life would be better without them. Without immigration, this country collapses.

Most Immigrant coming from different countries are only coming to make a better life for themselves and family, also the incoming immigrants help the economy.

It should be much easier to become a citizen in America. The only reason there are so many illegal immigrants is because of the difficulty to apply for citizenship.

If a child was born in the U.S., they are automatically a citizen, even if their parents are immigrants.

Covered by the 14th amendment, It says that anyone born in America (from immigrants) are indeed American citizens.

People wanting to come to this country are usually very grateful and I think letting people in can mostly help the country for the better.

Their parents came to America to give them better opportunities than in the countries they came from. The children and their parents did not ask to be born in a country where their dreams could not be realized, and America was founded on the idea of equality and opportunity.

I think children of illegal immigrants should be granted legal citizenship because they deserve a chance to have the same opportunities as someone that was born in the US.

It does not sound absurd but immigrants should be accepted and given every rights as an American citizen does because they are not safe in their own country but that the right thing to do

Children should definitely be granted legal citizenship if their parents are illegal immigrants because they have absolutely no say in immigrating into the U.S. They are dragged along by the choice of their parents and are forced to live by the decisions of their parents. It is unfair to punish children with no citizenship when it wasn’t by their choice whatsoever.

We are all immigrants. Often people coming into the country are victims of United States intervention, or are coming in to flee poverty. Everybody is human and nobody should be banned from coming into America.

Immigrants are just normal humans. they shouldn't be punished unless they have done super bad things.

Children of illegal immigrants should become legal citizens because under the constitution it states that if a child is born in the united states it is naturalized and that child becomes a citizen even if his or her mother/father are illegal immigrants.

But it says that anyone that is born in the U.S is automatically a citizen and, the parents over time can earn theirs as well. (going off the laws that’s already in place)

I believe we're all looking for a place where we can safely pursue happiness and no one should be denied that opportunity.

There is no evidence to suggest immigration is bad for our country and in fact it has only helped us. It does not lower wages, it does not take jobs. from our economy to our culture immigrants have built this country.

Immigrants are simply coming to America to find better jobs for themselves so they can provide more for their families and have a better life style.

i think everyone deserves a chance depending on their background, what if they were a family just trying to get away from abuse, they should be aloud to stay.

Not offering a child of illegal immigrants legal citizenship is holding back benefits that comes with such legal status for a) an action (immigrating illegally into this country) that they had little to no say in is unjust and b) unfair to someone who is genuinely no different from children of U.S. citizens.

They were born here and it says (in some important document from a long time ago) that anybody born on this land is a citizen, so yes they should be citizens.

the more people who come to live in the US the more ideologies and ideas are shared and the further our advancements get made

they should have somewhat of a say I mean they want what everyone else wants which is an equal oppurtunity to live a good life

We’re a nation of immigrants living on lane we stole; historically, we’ve taken everyone who wants to come here. Unless they’re outright criminals who want to kill people we have no reason to say they can’t come here.

The children of those people did nothing wrong and were born on U.S soil. They should not be punished for their parents actions, you cannot punish someone for what they're parents did. They have no control over their parent's choices. They were in the United States so they would be a U.S Citizen.

Well the immigrants just want a better life so I feel if they have no criminal record they should be allowed to stay.

That it is good the immigration path should be made easier but if someone wants to be an American citizen i don’t see they can’t be.

immigration is essential to expose the US to different cultures and talents, different way of thinking etc

children of immigrants did not choose to live in the united states, they were born here and do deserve a chance to become a citizen

I think people who want the opportunity to live in the US should be given one, especially people who come from dangerous situations and are escaping should be

The 14th amendment states that all persons born in the United States are natural born citizens, regardless of their parents’ citizenship statuses. Therefore if a child of an illegal immigrant is born in the US, that child is a natural-born citizen.

Immigration will have the opportunity to have a better life in the U.S. but some may be criminals and we dont know exactly is coming in the U.S for good intentions or bad ones.

Immigrants usually work in manual and/or unskilled labor which are positions with a lot of demand and need. It would boost the economy and increase diversity.

If they are born on United States land, then they are a United States citizen. That's how it was when there were settlers and that's how we all are United States citizens. If we continue to try and divided ourselves, then nothing can get done and everyone would hate one another.

We should control the new entries. But legalize the people that has been here already for decades without any resolution.

Children that are born and raised in the United states are no different then the children of illegal immigrants so they should be able to be granted legal citzenship.

Kids deserve a chance at a better life. That's what coming to America has always been for many immigrants, all they want is an opportunity to grant their family a good life. Why should they be denied this and tell their children they are stuck living where they can't move forward financially? I think it's good to have a dream, so the answer should be "yes" to granting illegal immigrants legal citizenship.

Immigrants are wanting and willing to come here, work themselves to death, and do the work the "real americans" don't want to do. They are willing to pay proper taxes, take care of what is theirs, and be humble and mind their own business and better the americans businesses because the "real americans" won't do it themselves.

Children are innocent and should be granted citizenship and equal freedoms in any land they choose to live.

We need more people to fill in the jobs, to keep company's/ businesses afloat, and keep the economy moving.

I think they should help or allow some immigrants to this country because they move out of their home country for a reason.

you are forcefully kicking out people with nowhere to go who are facing death in their own countries, that shows a lack of humanity

Immigrants work hard at jobs most of us don't want to do. Be fair to them. They are just looking to support their family.

Immigrants work just like any other person, they came here to seek a better life so they work hard to earn it. It not fair to be treated differently because you were born in a different place than everyone else

Christopher Columbus was an immigrant and he is viewed as one of the first here on North America, the U.S is built on immigrants.

Immigrants come for a better life and if seen that they have been a good individual in the United States they should be able to apply for citizenship.

why can't everyone just be given the opportunity to be treated like an American like what is the reason to treat them differently than one ? it makes no sense to me when we all have everything that makes us equal to each other , blood , skin , body , soul . we are simple atoms and we should have no room to hate or make people life difficult for no reason.

Immigrates do a lot for the country and without them we wouldn't be the nation that we are so we should give them help with healthcare.

This country has been built mostly by immigrants and there should be no reason to keep people in cages or want to kill them just because they are trying to live a better life.

The children are innocent of their parent’s action so should not be sent back based on their context of why the came to America like should be provided with healthcare as well.

Immigrants are hardworking and want the best for their own children to build the life they want for them.

How the hell do you think we got here? climb up the ladder and kick it? Double standard. **** shouldnt be first come first serve its a piece of land.

Immigrants come to this country for a better quality of life compared to their home country. We should allow them and welcome them with open arms to our country. They are valuable to our workforce and have contributed to our way of life. This country will disintegrate if we don't allow immigrants to come.

They have a right to be citizens of the U.S. if they are living in it along with their parents whether they are legal or illegal, but they deserve citizenship because their parents did not come all this way just for their kids to be stopped in certain aspects due to being illegal.

Immigrants are some of the most hard working people they work jobs most of us don't want to do. They're just looking to support their families.

Migrants are necessary in the country's economy. They are the ones who do the most difficult jobs and make the country advance more.

I don't think its necessary for the US to continue building a wall, many of these immigrants who try and cross everyday are people seeking help from violence abuse and threats. Many of these people are very hardworking and could benefit the country.

Most immigrants who come here are not criminals and hold jobs, contrary to popular belief. They don't just sap money from the country, but they improve the economy as they come. They don't take jobs away from Americans but rather create new jobs.

immigrants should be given an opportunity in this country, majority of them work hard and provide a good economic stance for the country.

Millions of families in the united states are immigrant families and wouldn't exist, including my family and therefore I wouldn't exist if my mom wasn't able to immigrate.

Children should have the ability to grow up and make a living here as the parents made sacrifices to make their way here in order for the child to live a better life.

Our country was build by immigrants, immigrants run our country, without immigrants many of our businesses would ot be able to expand.

A more significant population in the country means a greater workforce and financial gain for everyone. This means immigration towards a country would greatly benefit them.

well , if the child was born in that country, then the child is automatically a citizen of that country.

I’m very confused but I am not against immigration because everyone wants to have a better life and provide for their families who are back home.

the United States was built from immigrants but for people who illegally enter that's a no but people who come to the us and wanting to immigrant to the us should be aloud to come

Many people cannot get documents to get across the boarder safely. Many lose their jobs just from missing work to go to a embassy.

I think there should be a limit because then it will be an invasion, and those countries should help their people instead of another country doing it.

Increasing the number of immigrants allows for more people to come in the US, diversifying the workforce and making our culture richer.

people have a choice, I mean many people from other cities come to the U.S. to work and and a better future

Just like our ancestors are immigrants who i came to find a better life people are doing this now. As a country we stand for freedom and a chance of a better life.

Immigrants contribute to our country in many ways including cultural diversity, economic advancements, and minds from all around the world.

i highly disagree to that statement, they could have had their own reasons to immigrate, for there families and homes.

Immigrant that are benefit to the government should allow to become citizen and has the rights as a citizen has. as most of American was immigrant when first they explored America.

I do believe that children of immigrants should be granted legal citizenship. If the child comes at an early age and grows up here they are basically citizens of the U.S.
