US Announces Visa Restrictions Targeting Birth Tourism Facilitators
The US government announced new visa restrictions targeting individuals involved in birth tourism, a practice where people travel to the US to give birth so their child gains citizenship. The policy aims to prevent exploitation of the immigration system by those who profit from or facilitate such activities, including operators of birth tourism networks and medical providers. This follows recent executive orders addressing birthright citizenship after a Supreme Court ruling.
