Child Trafficking

Last year, the feds spent $2.7 billion on unaccompanied children at the border, which is roughly $18,000 per unaccompanied child. For context, the average cost of education in Texas K-12 schools was $9,800 per student.
The chaos on America’s southern border has had unintended consequence — a human catastrophe hurting tens of thousands of unaccompanied, defenseless children.
Despite generous taxpayer funding, the federal infrastructure to provide for these children and ensure their safety is woefully incompetent.
The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Office of Refugee Resettlement, a part of the Administration for Children and Families, provides social services for unaccompanied children crossing the U.S.-Mexico border.
