Birthright Tourism Bills Surge After SCOTUS Ruling
The Supreme Court's ruling against President Donald Trump's motion to restrict birthright citizenship has led to a surge in legislation aimed at stopping foreign travelers from coming to the US to give birth to children granted American citizen status. Senator Rick Scott has introduced the SAFE KIDS Act to address gaps in US surrogacy law and prevent adversarial nations from exploiting the immigration system. The legislation would create a misdemeanor for brokers who facilitate prohibited commercial surrogacy agreements with citizens from foreign adversarial nations and invalidate such agreements.
