We need your help.
Newspapers and media companies nationwide are closing or suffering mass layoffs since the coronavirus impacted all of us starting in March. City Weekly's entire existence is directly tied to people getting together in groups--in clubs, restaurants, and at concerts and events--which are the industries most affected by new coronavirus regulations.
Our industry is not healthy. Yet, City Weekly has continued publishing thanks to the generosity of readers like you. Utah needs independent journalism more than ever, and we're asking for your continued support of our editorial voice. We are fighting for you and all the people and businesses hardest hit by this pandemic.
You can help by making a one-time or recurring donation on PressBackers.com, which directs you to our Galena Fund 501(c)(3) non-profit, a resource dedicated to help fund local journalism. It is never too late. It is never too little. Thank you. DONATE

Chaffetz not down with illegal babies
Posted By Greg Wilcox on July 10, 2009, 4:44 PM
Utah's own Chaffetz is one of 78 co-sponsors of the Birthright Citizenship Act, which seeks to reverse the right of anyone born within
U.S. borders or in U.S. territories to be considered a citizen.
Chaffetz argues that the U.S. Constitution's 14th Amendment, which says that all people born inside the country are citizens, is "being abused.” He said "Becoming a United States citizen is valuable and should be earned." He does admit that, with the democratic congress, it doesn't have a chance of passing anytime soon.
