Governor Greg Abbott is cracking down hard on “birth tourism” in Texas, signing a new executive order that orders state agencies to investigate healthcare providers suspected of helping foreign visitors come to the state specifically to give birth for citizenship. With penalties including license revocation, loss of state contracts, and federal referrals, Abbott sends a clear message: U.S. citizenship isn’t for sale, and Texas won’t stand for exploiting immigration laws. This move builds on earlier actions, including referrals of two hospitals for advertising “birth packages,” and signals a coordinated, multi-agency effort to shut down these schemes.
