About this listen
The United States — a nation built on the promise of new opportunities. And that promise begins, quite literally, at birth. According to the 14th Amendment of the Constitution, every person born on U.S. soil is a citizen of the country, regardless of their parents’ origin or immigration status. But today, that certainty is being questioned.
Recent political proposals seek to eliminate automatic citizenship. Supporters argue this would help curb irregular immigration. Opponents warn it would put at risk not only a fundamental right but also access to essential services — including maternal and child healthcare. When a mother enters the delivery room, she doesn’t think about politics. She thinks about her baby. Yet if this law changes, every birth could turn into a bureaucratic and emotionally draining process.
In this episode of Nuestra Salud, we will discuss the possible effects on maternal and fetal health if the Supreme Court decides to revoke the guarantee of citizenship for children born to undocumented immigrants#birthright#latinos#latinas#latineHosted on Acast.
