Over 300,000 migrant children reportedly unaccounted for, sparking concerns over trafficking and exploitation.
The House Homeland Subcommittee is investigating the disturbing disappearance of thousands of migrant children who have gone missing while under federal care.
A recent report from the Department of Homeland Security’s Office highlights that over 300,000 children placed under the supervision of the Office of Refugee Resettlement have vanished from official oversight.
The hearing aims to address the alarming implications of these disappearances, including concerns over child trafficking and exploitation along the U.S.-Mexico border.
Several whistleblowers have come forward to provide insights into the failures within the system and the vulnerabilities faced by unaccompanied minors.
Lawmakers are calling for urgent reforms to improve oversight and ensure the safety of migrant children.
As these hearings unfold, they serve as a sobering reminder of the human toll within the broader immigration crisis, emphasizing the need for bipartisan action to protect the most vulnerable.
