EXCLUSIVE: Trump’s Birth Tourism Task Force Revokes Hundreds of Chinese Nationals’ Visas

FIRST ON THE DAILY SIGNAL—President Donald Trump’s Birth Tourism Prevention Task Force has revoked more than 700 visas held by Chinese nationals since its launched in August.

“The Chinese birth tourism industry should not be allowed to profit from the privileges of American citizenship while undermining the integrity of our immigration laws,” a State Department spokesperson told the Daily Signal. “President Trump and Secretary Rubio are putting American interests first, strengthening enforcement, and making clear that the United States will not tolerate the deliberate exploitation of its visa process.”

The State Department established a task force to identify instances of birth tourism, revoke visas of those who engage in or facilitate it, and dismantle the networks that profit from it.

The task force’s largest crackdown has been on Chinese nationals accused of exploiting the immigration system to obtain U.S. citizenship for their children, according to the spokesperson.

“We will not allow foreign nationals or commercial networks from any country to abuse our visa process for financial gain,” the spokesperson said.

More than 107 Chinese-owned surrogacy agencies operate in Southern California alone.

Chinese nationals often pay women living in the United States more than $50,000 to serve as surrogates. Conventional birth tourism results in an estimated 50,000 to 100,000 annual U.S. births to Chinese nationals, according to investigative journalist Peter Schweitzer’s Senate testimony.

Surrogacy cycles commissioned by foreign intended parents surged 78% from 2014 to 2019, from 2,758 to 4,905 embryo transfers a year. Chinese nationals were the largest customer base at 41.7%, according to the American Society for Reproductive Medicine’s journal.
