I’m pretty sure the guy quoted was head of a hospital closer to the border. Kinda hard to waddle all the way to Dallas after your water breaks. And I know Parkland, I would have recognized it.

Parkland Memorial ...is top hospital in noncitizen births in Texas

August 8, 2010

The Dallas Morning News Dallas County's public hospital is ground zero in the growing controversy over babies born to illegal immigrants.

Across Texas, 60,000 babies of noncitizens get U.S. birthright

While members of Congress argue about ways to prevent these infants from automatically becoming U.S. citizens, the staff at Parkland Memorial Hospital is doing what it always does: delivering babies.

Parkland handled 11,071 births last year to women who could not provide proof of U.S. citizenship – or 74 percent of the total 14,872 births at the hospital. Most of these women are believed to be in the country illegally.

It was the busiest hospital in the state for such births.
