Birthright Citizenship Mexico

President Donald Trump has insisted that the United States is the only nation to guarantee citizenship to children born within its borders. In fact, about three dozen countries, mostly in the Americas, guarantee birthright citizenship, including Mexico. Vivianne Petit Frere fled Haiti in 2019, settling in Mexico after dreams of reaching the U.S. proved illusory. She says her granddaughter was born in Tijuana and became the first generation Mexican in her family. She says she's grateful her granddaughter will have a Mexican passport and can grow up in a country where there are more opportunities than in Haiti.
