End of Birthright Citizenship: Implications for H-1B Families
Donald Trump's proposal to end birthright citizenship in the United States could significantly affect families of H-1B visa holders. Currently, children born on U.S. soil to non-citizen parents automatically gain citizenship, which has been a crucial factor for many families planning to remain in America long-term. The H-1B program, established to bring skilled labor from around the world, faces renewed scrutiny as public sentiment shifts regarding immigration and its economic impact. The potential ending of this citizenship right, combined with stricter visa rules, may deter skilled workers from pursuing opportunities in the U.S., thus complicating the narrative surrounding immigration and innovation in the American economy.
