L.A. County cites 16 'maternity hotels' serving Asian visitors

Following a flurry of complaints, Los Angeles County inspectors have cited 16 “maternity hotel” owners for illegally operating boardinghouses in residential zones.

No major health or safety issues were found at the hotels, where women from Asia stay to give birth to U.S. citizen babies. But some of the facilities, which were in Rowland Heights or Hacienda Heights, were cited for building and fire code violations, according to a report released Thursday.

Some of the unauthorized renovations included kitchens, laundries, nurseries and living quarters for workers, the report said.

The inspections were commissioned by the L.A. County Board of Supervisors in February after media coverage of a Chino Hills maternity hotel triggered an increase in complaints. The women typically come from China or Taiwan and stay in the hotels for several months before and after giving birth. The baby receives a U.S. passport, and the family returns home to Asia.

Anchor babies.

This grave issue will not be a part of so-called “immigration reform,” although it merits immediate reform!

I hear you.

I hope you find suitable and safer place to go.

It’s very difficult see a way forward for this country.

Overreaching laws and regulations are never repealed.

But, but....all the Free Trader Communists always told us that Asia was the “Emerging Tiger” and that our shipping American jobs and wealth to Asia (esp Communist China) would make them wealthy....I guess wealthy enough to come download their kids in America

I will not abandon my country. True, it is on its way to destruction from within, thanks to the left-wing socialists who have taken control and pantywaist Republicans who have been carrying water for them. But I will not leaven my country while she is in her death throes. I will not turn my back on her. I will not abandon her. When she goes, I will go with her.

A country this stupid and self-hating should be on suicide watch.
