The "Ban Birth Tourism Act of 2026" amends the Immigration and Nationality Act. It targets aliens seeking US citizenship for their children through birth tourism, making them inadmissible and deportable. The Act defines birth tourism as entering or reentering the US to obtain citizenship for a child by giving birth or being likely to give birth within 10 months of entry. It authorizes the Secretary of Homeland Security, the Secretary of State, or consular officers to make judgments regarding birth tourism. The Act aims to deter and penalize individuals engaging in birth tourism and seeking to secure US citizenship for their children through such means.
