President and founder of GUARD Against Trafficking Ali Hopper said Thursday on Fox News’ “The Ingraham Angle” that the Biden administration had reportedly missed over 60,000 calls to a hotline for migrant children due to being understaffed.
While testifying before the House Committee on Homeland Security on July 16, Hopper said to lawmakers that the Biden administration allegedly missed 65,000 calls from migrant children to a hotline set up to “report concerns about the unaccompanied child’s safety.” Discussing her testimony with Fox News’ Laura Ingraham, the host asked Hopper what happened with the calls.

“Yes, it was a safeguard put in place by the previous administration, and it looked good on policy. It looked good on paper. But when the policy doesn’t actually work, when what was implemented as a safeguard doesn’t work and you only have one person assigned to the hotline to manage and field all of these calls, that is what happens,” Hopper said. “That is what results with 65,000 unanswered calls.”
