Report request: I'm an immigration policy analyst living in Washington DC. I need to research birth tourism, particularly its impact on migration trends, social dynamics, cultural attitudes, and citizenship policies in the United States.
Prepare a report about "maternity tourism," the practice of pregnant women traveling to another country with the aim of obtaining a second citizenship for their child. The report should lay out the advantages and disadvantages of birth tourism to the child, the parents, and the countries involved, and should identify any arguments that specific countries have put forth endorsing or opposing the practice.
