Feds fight 'maternity tourism' with raids on California 'maternity hotels'

QuoteAuthorities get warrants for 37 sites, search more than 50 locations in California
The "maternity tourism" sites are apartment complexes catering largely to pregnant women from China.

Los Angeles (CNN)—Federal agents on Tuesday raided more than three dozen "maternity hotels" in Southern California where foreign women give birth,
allegedly for the sole purpose of having a U.S.-citizen baby.

Those targeted residences are believed to have catered largely to women from China, who paid $15,000 to $50,000 for lodging, transportation and food, according to a statement by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

Authorities are looking for evidence of bringing in and harboring of undocumented visitors; conspiracy, fraud and misuse of visas and permits; tax evasion and false tax returns; and willful failure to file report of foreign bank and financial accounts, court papers said.

Any can come and claim citizenship when the Constitution is so misrepresented.  Doesn't matter what nationality they will end up with benefits.

That question (which I saw) was pure Liberal Emotion, thats the type of BS stuff they ask "WHAT ABOUT THE CHILDREN" meant to appeal to the "humanity" in all of us....this from a bunch of people who rip unborn children to pieces and sell their body parts.

Using our dime to do it no less as well. That whole situation is absolutely disgusting.

And also typical of the hypocritical leftists.

The Chinese have a tendency to assimilate and become capitalists who are educated. That model does not fit Obama and the democrats.

If you ask me it doesn't fit Republican either.  Illegal is illegal.  A misrepresentation of the Constitution just the same.  We seem to be a country without law.  If we make exceptions based by race we are showing that we are racist.  Self haters too!  And I am sure as most others here our families migrated.  Maybe not this generation but we all migrated and can trace our heritage back to other countries.  I'm a mutt so I am lazy.  Lazy mutt!
