The Texas government must not simply act like a powerless bystander but take bold and decisive action to protect liberty for future generations.
Texas Insider Report: AUSTIN, Texas – Following last week’s SCOTUS decision on birthright citizenship, Texas State Rep. Brian Harrison wrote a letter this morning to the Texas Department of State Health Services asking that they use their existing authority to immediately stop issuing birth certificates to non-citizens.
Dear Executive Commissioner Muth:
Last week’s United States Supreme Court’s ruling on birthright citizenship in Trump v. Barbara has potentially devastating ramifications for Texas, which has well documented “birth tourism” companies, which recruit persons from foreign countries like China. Additionally, Texas was also invaded by millions of illegal immigrants during the Biden Administration. We know these aliens include violent murderers, terrorists, and drug cartel members. Due to the absurd reasoning of the Supreme Court’s majority ruling, children born in Texas to these illegals will be eligible for state welfare programs, eventually able to vote in our elections, and afforded citizenship – even if they literally never set foot on Texas or American soil and are flown home hours or days after birth.
Texans deserve action, not just rhetoric, from their state leaders. We must start acting like the sovereign state we are and stop taking it on the chin when actions from DC threaten to destroy the very fabric of our republic. The Texas government must not simply act like a powerless bystander but take bold and decisive action to protect liberty for future generations.
While I am calling for a special session to take legislative action, such as making birth tourism a felony, under current law, you have broad authority right now to determine who is “properly qualified” to receive a certified birth certificate.
I am writing to inquire what steps the Department of State Health Services (DSHS) has taken to designate parents who are participating in birth tourism or who are non-citizens as not “properly qualified” to receive a birth certificate for their children and to deny them birth certificates.
If no such action is occurring, then please consider this my formal request to immediately take all necessary action to STOP ISSUING BIRTH CERTIFICATES TO NON-CITIZENS.
Thank you for your attention to this important matter, and I look forward to working with you on it.
For liberty,
Brian Harrison
