The other open-borders commodity
Mexican drug smugglers also traffic in young girls, too

Some proponents of the current open borders policy also claim to be defenders of women’s rights. It is, therefore, supremely ironic that one unintended consequence of open borders is a substantial spike in sex trafficking of young girls. That’s the major takeaway of a trip to South Texas earlier this month.
Through the good offices of a longtime Texas Republican official and Reagan appointee, as well as a high school classmate who is a rancher in South Texas, I met separately with federal, Texas state and local officials with border responsibilities — six ethnically diverse men, a mix of Democrats and Republicans. My initial mission was to discuss the heroin epidemic from China and Mexico sweeping the United States, and they were more than willing to discuss drugs, but in each case they voluntarily shifted into a discussion of the sex trafficking of young girls. It was clear both from their words and their body language that they are highly offended by this practice and wish more official attention were paid to it.
