Rep. Brandon Gil talks about federal probe into ‘birth tourism’ in South Florida
Rep. Brandon Gil cited a Local 10 News investigation as the source of a federal probe into a South Florida business accused of facilitating 'birth tourism.' The company, Have My Baby in Miami, operated by Dr. Wladimir Lorentz, allegedly promoted services for non-U.S. citizens to give birth in the U.S. to secure citizenship for their children, which violates visa laws. Congressional investigators warn that misrepresenting intentions on a visitor visa constitutes fraud.
