President Donald Trump’s executive order ending birth citizenship for children of migrants has reportedly prompted a rush for C-section births by pregnant illegal migrants and visa workers.
Dr. S D Rama, who operates a maternity clinic in the United States, told Times of India that a significant increase in pre-term delivery requests has been seen following President Trump’s Monday executive order ending birthright citizenship for children of illegal migrants.

Sounds like they were here legally, so I’m not sure their child would be denied citizenship.
So what’s their big bitch? The American taxpayers are going to have to foot the medical bills anyway.
A legitimate doctor would not perform a c-section so early unless it was medically necessary.
