VoyForums Announcement: Programming and providing support for this service has been a labor of love since 1997.

We have even fought hard to defend your privacy in legal cases; however, we've done it with almost no financial support -- paying out of pocket to continue providing the service. Due to the issues imposed on us by advertisers, we also stopped hosting most ads on the forums many years ago. We hope you appreciate our efforts.

> They refer to the children as anchor babies. The babies qualify them for public assistance and gives them a claim for staying in the U.S. The law was passed to give ex-slaves citizenship status. It was never intended to be used this way. It needs to be stopped. The Barbara Jordan Commission recommended, about ten years ago, that the law be changed to require that at least one parent be a citizen of the United States. The politicos dismissed it. It sure sounds reasonable to me.
