CHICAGO — In case you missed it, Chuck Hernandez, chairman of the Chicago Republican Party and a former detective with the Chicago Police Department joined WTTW to discuss President Trump’s Executive Order ending birthright citizenship.

Throughout the interview, Hernandez highlighted President Trump’s mandate election and keeping his promises to the American people, saying, “The Trump administration is going to enforce immigration law. That’s what he ran on, that’s what he won on, that’s what the American people voted for overwhelmingly.”

Hernandez also pointed out how people are taking advantage of the United State’s immigration laws, saying, “When you look at citizenship, the 14th Amendment citizenship clause is clear. It’s not only being born on U.S soil, but it’s also not having your jurisdiction to another country. So if you’re a foreign person from another country, you should not be automatically granted citizenship in the United States. People are using this to exploit our immigration system.”
