From NBC last winter:
Birth tourism brings Russian baby boom to Miami
by CYNTHIA MCFADDEN, SARAH FITZPATRICK, TRACY CONNOR and ANNA R. SCHECTER
MIAMI — Lured by the charm of little Havana or the glamour of South Beach, some 15 million tourists visit Miami every year.
But for a growing number of Russian women, the draw isn’t sunny beaches or pulsing nightclubs. It’s U.S. citizenship for their newborn children.
Thank goodness for Russian sleazeballs exploiting our immigration law loopholes: their whiteness allows the mass media to get worked up on the topic instead of still nervously shying away from, say, endemic Chinese birth tourism on the grounds that it might be racist to notice.
