DALLAS __"They're pulling the pin on the immigration grenade,"says Rep. Rafael AnchÃa, D-Dallas, speaking of Republicans who are pushing for changes to the 14th Amendment that provides automatic citizenship to any baby born in America.
Shocking Texas statistics:
A population of an estimated 1.5 million illegal immigrants
60 - 65,000 babies born each year in Texas are given automatic birthright citizenship
Based on those statistics, the explosion that rocks the American immigration debate may originate from Dallas, Texas, home to Parkland Memorial Hospital.
Anchor babies overwhelming Dallas:
"Last year at Parkland, 11,071 babies were born to women who were noncitizens - about 74 percent of total deliveries. Most of these women are believed to be in the country illegally." The Dallas Morning News
"In 2004, according to the article, the cost was $70.7 million. Also needless to say, the impact of the birth by illegal alien mothers at such high levels year after year is having a dramatic impact on the demography of Dallas. It is radically increasing income disparity, representing a rising danger to social order, as well as contributing to rapidly rising welfare costs." (Source: Center for Immigration Studies)
