HHS Loses Track of Alien Children; State and Local Taxpayers Pay
avatar By BOB DANE April 20, 2022 No Comments
The federal government has lost contact with some 20,000 migrant children released from its custody. And that’s only the beginning of the problem. Through its feckless immigration policies the Biden administration is potentially putting minors at risk, while sticking state and local taxpayers with an ever-growing bill for schooling and suites of social services.
The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) admits it could not locate nearly one in five of the 108,981 children who were handed over to sponsors in this country by the Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR).
“Of course, most of those sponsors likely did not wish to talk to federal officials because they, themselves, are illegally present in the United States,” says Andrew Arthur of the Center for Immigration Studies (CIS). ORR does not verify sponsors’ immigration status.
