Thread: Feds raid multiple alleged ‘Chinese birthing houses’ in maternity tourism scheme

“It’s not illegal to have your baby born in the United States, but it is illegal to lie about your reasons for travel,” ICE Special Agent Claude Arnold told KTLA. “In these cases, the women were misrepresenting their reason for travel. They were concealing the fact that they were pregnant, and they were coached by the businesses on how to do that.”

Is concealing a pregnancy a crime? Is it currently illegal to travel to the US to have a baby without disclosing that to someone on a visa application? Is this like selling movie tickets and asking someone do you want to see the movie when you really want to see a girl you think might be there?

These people didn't do anything wrong under the law. What is wrong is that the US government is granting automatic birthright citizenship to children of foreign tourists, visa immigrants, visa students and illegal aliens. That is not what the 14th Amendment provided for, it provided for automatic birthright citizenship to children born under the jurisdiction of the United States, which is NOT limited to the exclusion of just diplomats. So don't blame these Chinese who came in on a visa to visit our country and have a baby to whom the US government in its total incompetency will grant citizenship. No child of a foreign visitor or visa holder or illegal alien should be granted US citizenship because these people are not under the jurisdiction of the United States, they are citizens of another country and under their jurisdiction.

This whole mess is so convoluted, so screwed up, so out of control, that Congress needs to pass a 10 Year Moratorium on all new immigration so this whole disaster can be stopped, fixed and reset so this nonsense never ever happens again.

And pass Steve Kings' bill to at least stop the insanity of granting automatic birthright citizenship to children of illegal aliens, perhaps add to that for clarity, that only children of aliens with permanent resident green cards will be granted US citizenship.
