     Maternity Tourism

Pregnant women are investing thousands of
dollars to travel to the U.S. and have their babies


San Gabriel, Calif.
Women from around the world travel to the U.S. in the final days of their pregnancy to give birth to “American” babies, some traveling from as far as China, Turkey, South Korea, and other countries to take advantage of automatic American citizenship. There were so many women in these anchor baby motels that an exact number of people living there could not be determined. Upon interviewing these women, city social workers discovered that they had paid grand sums for the chance to deliver their babies within the borders of the United States after hearing about the opportunity to do so by companies in their home countries. Often these “baby stay” packages arrange for doctors, insurance, and postpartum care. Some even offer a free stroller.

The question of  constitutionality to grant of automatic citizenship to children born in the U.S. whose parents are illegal aliens and who can then sponsor their parents for permanent residency as citizens of the United States.[Correction: An article on March 28, 2011 about the increase in the number of maternity tourists, women who pay thousands of dollars to deliver their babies in the United States so the infants are automatically granted American citizenship, misstated the effect such citizenship has on the babies’ parents. When such children turn 21, they may petition the United States government to grant their parents permanent residence status, not citizenship.] The problem with the San Gabriel makeshift maternity ward is that most of the women were here LEGALLY possessing valid tourist visas.

How many other cities across American is the American citizenship baby business taking place?
American is the ONLY industrialized nation that allows birthright citizenship


This doesn't include the illegal's that come here to have their babies. They come across the border by ambulance and border security waves them through. Then to a hospital and have their baby at the American Taxpayer's expense. BE ##
