2/5 🧵 The breakdown matters. The piece says 245,000 of those births were to parents who were both in the country illegally. Another 15,000 involved mothers with temporary legal status and fathers who were neither citizens nor lawful permanent residents. The remaining 60,000 were births to illegal-immigrant mothers where the father was a citizen or lawful permanent resident. Same 320,000 total, but very different family/legal situations inside that number.
