Trump birth tourism ban puts visa-seeking foreign parents on notice

The White House has officially banned the practice of "birth tourism," in which foreign nationals travel to the United States with the intention of giving birth in order to obtain US citizenship for their child. Deputy Chief of Staff for Policy and Homeland Security Adviser Stephen Miller confirmed the ban, stating that no one will be allowed to obtain a visa for this fraudulent purpose.

The measure is described as one of the Trump administration's most significant actions, as it addresses a perceived abuse of the American system. The ban follows the US Supreme Court's decision to strike down Trump's earlier attempt to end birthright citizenship through an executive order.
