A preliminary report indicates that between 225,000 and 250,000 children were born in the United States to illegal migrants in 2023. This figure, highlighted by various sources, suggests a notable trend in births among this demographic. The report coincides with recent actions by the president, who signed an executive order aimed at banning birthright citizenship. The number of births to illegal immigrants in 2023 surpasses the total number of babies born in all but two individual U.S. states. This data raises discussions about immigration policy and its implications on citizenship rights.
