Legislators set sights on 'anchor babies'
(CNN) -- A group of state legislators opposed to illegal immigration plan to propose a legislative "fix" Wednesday that would prevent children of illegal immigrants born in the United States from being citizens, a spokesman said.
The group, State Legislators for Legal Immigration, will reveal their strategy at a Wednesday morning news conference at the National Press Club in Washington, Ty McCauslin said.
The coalition counts members from 40 states. It argues that the 14th Amendment has been wrongly applied to so-called "anchor babies."
The 14th Amendment says that "all persons born ... in the United States" automatically become U.S. citizens.
