Show Notes
As you know, a caravan of migrants is headed toward the Mexico/U.S. border. At the same time, President Trump has stated his intention to ban birthright citizenship. In this episode, Stephen looks into the 14th amendment, which provides U.S. citizenship to persons born on U.S. soil. Is it time we revisit the meaning of the 14th amendment in the 21st century? And to speak more broadly, how can the United States be a beacon to the world, welcoming people, while reforming an immigration policy that currently offers entitlements to those who enter illegally?
