Me thinks this directly violates Wong Kim Ark vs. the USA. At least the article does not mention the case. An 'A' for effort but isn't this an 'F' for jurisdiction, i.e., established federal precedent for over 100 years?

Arizona's Next Immigration Target: Children of Illegals
"Anchor babies" isn't a very endearing term, but in Arizona those are the words being used to tag children born in the U.S. to illegal immigrants. While not new, the term is increasingly part of the local vernacular because the primary authors of the nation's toughest and most controversial immigration law are targeting these tots - the legal weights that anchor many undocumented aliens in the U.S. - for their next move.
