PHOENIX -- E-mails to and from Ariz.state Sen. Russell Pearce reveal the immigration enforcement debate may not stop with SB 1070, the controversial immigration law.
Pearce, R-Mesa, the author of Arizona’s immigration law, has been writing to some of his constituents about what he plans to accomplish next.In e-mails obtained by CBS 5, Pearce said he intends to push for a bill that would enable Arizona to no longer grant citizenship to the children of illegal immigrants born on U.S. soil.Pearce writes in one e-mail: "I also intend to push for an Arizona bill that would refuse to accept or issue a birth certificate that recognizes citizenship to those born to illegal aliens, unless one parent is a citizen."

CBS 5 Investigates looked through hundreds of e-mails Pearce had sent to constituents and some of their replies. The e-mails varied from praise to criticism and outlined Pearce’s future plans. Most were about S-B 10-70, his immigration law.E-mails from the law’s supporters outnumbered those from critics by seven to one. One supporter wrote, "I think it is about time we take our state and country back from the Mexicans.
"One opponent wrote, "Mr. Pearce, you are a sick, racist and bigot..." Pearce replied to some opponents: "Do you not care about the deaths…maimings…billions in cost to America...
"One of the more remarkable e-mails sent to a list of supporters detailed his next steps: The e-mail, several pages long, includes articles critical of the 14th Amendment, which gives babies born on U.S. soil automatic citizenship.
One of the e-mails written by someone else but forwarded by Pearce reads: "If we are going to have an effect on the anchor baby racket, we need to target the mother. Call it sexist, but that's the way nature made it. Men don't drop anchor babies, illegal alien mothers do.
"In response, Pearce sent two e-mails to CBS 5 that contain some of the reasoning he used to conclude that children of illegal immigrants should not be granted citizenship. He also said he's disappointed when people think he's mean spirited because he stands for America.Pearce said his new idea is not only legal but constitutional. “It’s common sense,†Pearce said. “Again – you can’t break into someone’s country and then expect to be rewarded for that. You can’t do it.
â€When Pearce was shown the e-mail referring to “anchor babies†that he forwarded, he said he didn’t find anything wrong with the language. “It’s somebody’s opinion…What they’re trying to say is it’s wrong. And I agree with them. It’s wrong,†said Pearce.
