'For Connecticut Attorney General William Tong, President-elect Donald Trump’s pledge to end birthright citizenship is more than just a provocative anti-immigrant policy likely to be blocked by courts. It’s personal. Tong, 51, a Democrat who has served as the state’s top legal official since 2019, is the son of immigrants who came to the United States from China and Taiwan.

He is the first member of his family to have been born on U.S. soil and is the first Asian American to be elected to statewide office in Connecticut. “I grew up working side by side with my parents in our family’s Chinese restaurant, and in one generation I’ve gone from that Chinese restaurant kitchen to be the attorney general of the state of Connecticut,” he said in an interview. “That only happens one place in this world, and that’s in America.”

On the campaign trail, Trump promised to take action to end birthright citizenship on day one of his second term in office, a move that would immediately prompt legal challenges. “I would be the first to sue,” Tong promised.

He is one of 23 Democratic state attorneys general who are likely to be regular opponents of Trump on various issues, ranging from immigration and LGBTQ rights to environmental policy and abortion, just as many were in the first Trump administration.'


The courts will be vital to opposing Trump’s fascist agenda – including Trump’s racist, bigoted immigration policy.

just a quick look at his background shows his parents were here long before he was born, and neither apparently arrived illegally.

quite possibly they were both citizens when he was born.
 
Most Left Wingers don't understand our constitution.
The 14th amendment birth right citizenship was created to protect the offspring of freed slaves.
It was never meant for the offspring of people who illegally entered our country.
The racist Democrat Party wants to fill our country with uneducated third world welfare moochers because intelligent White voters will no longer vote Democrat because of the Democrat Party's hate, racism, crime, corruption, lying and violence problems.
 
It will be an interesting case for the SCOTUS. Luckily, it will come after Thomas has retired and has had a suitable Justice to sit his seat.
 
Birthright Citizenship should not exist for ANYONE. My family has been here since the 1640s. My citizenship shouldn’t have been automatic either. I believe citizenship needs to be EARNED.

Trump is only proposing what the constitution was saying. So called birthright citizenship was specifically meant for newly freed slaves, not anyone who could break into our country and poop out a kid. Trump is right. No other civilized country allows this insane policy. Time for mass deportation. MAGA

I kind of lean towards getting rid of birthright automatic citizenship, the whole anchor baby thing has gotten old.

An aide for my congressman indicated working on a bill to implement restrictions on jus soli citizenship .

The phraseology of legislation must convey intent that is also consistent with us constitution .

The recommendation from this moniker is to correctly apply the clause , thereof , from us 14th amendment , and further assert diplomacy to ensure that jus sanguinin citizenship is provided to children from sojourners whom are not subjects by title in us legal immigration system as in invited merit based by visa - Zone1 - Civis Etas Unis Sum And Subject To The Jurisdiction Thereof Clause From Us 14th Amendment , Would A Legal Challenge of Subject To Contract Clause Of Us 14th Amendment Succeed ? .

What do you see as a “suitable Justice”?
