Republican Missouri Sen. Eric Schmitt unveiled his plan to fix the country’s broken laws governing immigration — both legal and illegal — as well as the one issue on which both parties appear to agree.

Schmitt called the Supreme Court’s June decision that President Donald Trump’s birthright citizenship executive order was unconstitutional a “ridiculous interpretation” of the Constitution in an exclusive interview with the Daily Caller News Foundation (DCNF). The GOP lawmaker discussed why he has been especially active on the issue in recent weeks and laid out what his fellow legislators can do to ensure the Constitution is interpreted as its framers intended.

The 6-3 Trump v. Barbara decision “misinterpreted the 14th Amendment and the Civil Rights Act [of 1866] that followed after the Civil War, which were meant to make sure that the children of former slaves were indeed full-fledged citizens,” the senator told the DCNF.

“That was the right thing to do,” he added, emphasizing that this was the “purpose” of establishing birthright citizenship in the country. “It certainly didn’t mean, nor was it contemplated, that you could come here from China, give birth, leave a week later, and then have a child raised in the CCP [Chinese Communist Party], come back on their 18th birthday, and run for office or contribute to political campaigns and be a citizen just like somebody who spent their whole life here.”

Executive Orders are not laws.

Congress can pass a law, the President can sign it, and then all sides can duke it out in court until SCOTUS rules on it.

If a law passed by Congress is insufficient, then work to pass a Constitutional Amendment.

Both can be worked on simultaneously to bring the issue to resolution as soon as possible, before America is over-run with CCP-sponsored birthright tourists.
