LA County plans move on immigrant birthing hotels

LOS ANGELES — Los Angeles County is planning a crackdown on makeshift maternity wards where mothers from other countries stay while giving birth so their children will be U.S. citizens.

The county has received 60 complaints about such facilities in the past month, according to a report by the Planning Department submitted to the Board of Supervisors, the Los Angeles Times reported.

That compared with just 15 complaints in the previous five years. The surge might be due to publicity over the closure of a house in Chino Hills that authorities contended had been used to house as many as 30 Chinese women.

It isn't illegal for foreign citizens to give birth in the U.S., but authorities say the maternity tourism hotels frequently are remodeled single-family homes in areas that aren't zoned for hotels or boarding houses.

County Supervisor Don Knabe wants to develop a county law that would specifically outlaw such facilities.

"They're a moneymaking machine. They're totally unsafe," Knabe said. "It's so obvious that they jeopardize not only the health of the baby, but the mother as well."

The Planning Commission report said efforts were being made to crack down on the hotels for zoning, building and health code violations.

Apparently 50 complaints weren’t quite enough.

Am I the only person that sees this as extraordinarily IRONIC!!

On one hand the county is bitching about a handful of ILLEGAL ALIENS spending their OWN MONEY and Lots of it to come here and have a child so their child is a US Citizen.

On the other hand they DON”T GIVE A DAMN about the THOUSANDS OF ILLEGAL ALIEN ILLITERATE PEASANTS from South of the Border coming here for the exact same reason, but with THEIR HAND OUT and the COUNTY forces US to PAY FOR IT.

You Decide

I think Nachum got it right, these putz’s are only upset that they are not getting a cut of the cash! For the idiots that develop these ILLEGAL immigrant safety zones to complain about what they made possible is poetic justice!

WTF?! Sorry a WTH just wasn’t strong enough. Wasnt California crying about how much the illegals had bled them dry and were even filing lawsuits against them within the last 2 years? I wonder whose great genius idea this was?

A 14 S 1: All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.

What is it that lawyers (aka judges) cannot read nor comprehend the declarative clause ‘..and subject to the jurisdiction thereof...’??

Let alone ‘...the equal protection of the laws.’ that are blatantly violated by bending-over for the illegal alien invaders that the Citizens must still shoulder (IE: Auto insurance, auto license, identity theft, etc.)??

The vast majority of the ones paying to come over just to get their child citizenship, then go back home. It gives them an option in the future.

And it’s MILLIONS that come to bleed us dry.

“Squat and drop citizenship makes me sick”

That’s more accurate than ‘jackpot babies’! The law was never written for this to happen.

It seems that concern for ‘the law’ is passe! It has become a national joke for anyone to expect observance and enforcement of the law.

That would be the outcome only if you are a government official, as they manage to be exempt from all the laws they pass.

Sorry but you either like the Constitution or not. Wasn’t this something the founders wanted?
