Tom Gallagher Changing birthright rules through Congress is the right way instead of leaving it to courts.
Nicole Hardy It's smart to start with the issue both sides already agree on, then build from there on the rest of the reforms.Maya Lindstrom Schmitt's focus on both legal and illegal immigration reform shows a practical path forward that could finally bring accountability.Dana Whitfield Any bipartisan agreement on this should focus on actual fixes rather than more spending with no results.Derek Foss Schmitt is right that Congress needs to clarify birthright citizenship instead of letting courts keep expanding it.Jared Kim I support fixing immigration but changing birthright rules feels like it needs a constitutional amendment rather than just a new law.Elena Vasquez If both parties really agree on one part of this then they should pass it quickly without more excuses.Rachel Meyers Both parties agreeing on this issue is rare but welcome. Schmitt should push the bill through quickly before politics gets in the way again.Elena Vasquez Both parties agreeing on one fix is rare but this could actually move if they focus on enforcement first.Maya Lindstrom If parties already agree on one fix they should pass that quickly and build from there rather than letting courts keep deciding.Derek Foss I hope this plan leads to real votes instead of more talk that never becomes law.
