About this episode

Peter Schweizer discusses the implications of birth tourism and its relation to international networks.

More than a million people are coming to America this summer for this year’s World Cup soccer matches. It’s “sports tourism.” At The DrillDown, however, host Peter Schweizer is more interested in stopping what he has called “birth tourism.” “The Trump administration announced actions against networks in Africa that were designed to provide birth tourism,” Schweizer says. “This is where foreign women, wives or girlfriends of people in these countries are sneaking into the United States to give birth so their child will be born a US citizen. We have exposed this as it relates to China, Russia, Turkey, and other countries. but this is a positive development – exciting news.”
