This afternoon, I started noticing a few people posting
articles on Facebook about the pro-choice White House’s policy toward unborn children who
will be visiting the White House with their parent(s). I gave it half a laugh,
noting the irony. A few hours later, the staff assistant in my office
forwarded me an email from the White House Visitor’s Center. I am pasting it
below:

Hi Hill!
A big Happy Birthday to San
Francisco Giants legendary centerfielder Willie Mays who turned 81 on Sunday!
OK, now back to work. We have received a number of
calls regarding how to enter security information for a baby that has not yet
been born.
Crazy as it may sound, you MUST include the baby in
the overall count of guests in the tour. It’s an easy process.
The baby’s security information should be entered as
follows:
·
LAST NAME: The family’s last name
·
FIRST NAME: “Baby” as a first name
·
MIDDLE NAME: NMN as in No Middle Name
·
DOB: Use the date you are submitting the request
to us as their birthday
·
GENDER: if the parents know put that gender down
if not, you can enter either M or F as we’ll ask you to update it at the time
of birth
·
SOCIAL: As they will not have a SSN and are
under 18, you will not need to enter this field. Again if the spreadsheet
asked for a social enter 9 zero’s (not the word nine zeros but 000000000 and
yes it happens!)
·
CITIZEN/CITY/STATE: The citizen, city and state
should be entered the same as the parents

Once, the baby is born, you should send an email to the VO
inbox with the tour request ID number, the baby’s given name, their actual birthday
and gender. We can then update the newborn guest’s information within our
system. Please note that any changes to security information for newborns must
be made at least 48 hours in advance.
Keep being awesome!
