“having a child does little to help an illegal immigrant avoid deportation, achieve legal status or gain government services for themselves”

“A U.S.-born child of low-income illegal immigrants is entitled to health care and food stamps. But the child’s citizenship doesn’t help the parent get those same benefits. People in the country illegally are ineligible for many government programs, no matter their child’s status.

Most illegal immigrants come to this country to work, not to soak up social services, advocates and health care providers say.”
