People's deeds usually trickle down to their offspring. Poor parents have poor children who are brought up in poor school systems where there are very few safety nets to direct them toward a successful future. Rich and/or wealthy parents have children who reap the benefits. The cycle of poverty and wealth (generational poverty and wealth) go on and on.
Thus, birthright and naturalized citizens of America are often not "saved" from the circumstances of their birthright and naturalized citizen parents. Should illegal immigrants' children be "saved?" I don't think so.
This is just an instance where children are not just impacted socioeconomically but also on the basis of receiving birth and citizenship documentation. This law will probably not go over well but it is most likely an attempt to make a statement and garner attention to the serious nature of this. It is likely not going to scare illegal immigrants shitless but instead going to bring attention to the morons who are taking advantage of illegal immigrants.
"Come to America where we will take advantage of your low wage labor, offer you social welfare programs, and then complain that you're being smart and taking advantage of these services. We know that whatever you encounter here is better than what's going on in your shitty homeland."
