(VIDEO) Trump Says “Very big Crackdowns” on Birth Tourism “in a Much More Forceful Manner” Incoming After Executive Orders on Birthright Citizenship

President Trump signed two executive orders targeting birth tourism and placing new restrictions on birthright citizenship, following a Supreme Court decision that struck down a previous order. These new measures aim to prevent individuals from intentionally traveling to the U.S. to give birth, utilizing legal means to combat organized birth tourism rings and fraudulent visa practices. Trump stated these actions are necessary because birthright citizenship has been undermined and is not intended for wealthy individuals seeking to gain citizenship for their children.
