HHS Pushes Back Against Narrative That It ‘Lost’ 1,500 Alien Children

“The federal agency responsible for caring for unaccompanied alien children is pushing back against accusations that it has lost nearly 1,500 of them, knocking critics that ‘confuse and spread misinformation’ about the issue,” Will Racke writes in The Daily Signal.


“These children are not ‘lost’; their sponsors—who are usually parents or family members and in all cases have been vetted for criminality and ability to provide for them—simply did not respond or could not be reached when this voluntary call was made,” Health and Human Services Deputy Secretary Eric Hargan said.

“Some liberal activists and journalists scrambled Sunday and Monday to delete tweets and social media posts incorrectly linking the Trump administration to an old photo of detained illegal-immigrant minors being held in a cage,” Victor Morton writes in The Washington Times. “The 2014 shot was actually taken during the Obama administration.”

“The Trump administration has shut down an Obama-era loophole that let immigrants who otherwise could not legally enter the U.S. claim a free pass by saying they were ‘entrepreneurs,’" the Washington Examiner reports. “The U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, part of the Department of Homeland Security, announced an end to the program, claiming former President Barack Obama overstepped his powers in creating it,” Paul Bedard writes.

Last week, “President Trump signed the Economic Growth, Regulatory Relief, and Consumer Protection Act — the first significant financial regulatory reform bill to become law since the crisis-era Dodd-Frank Act,” John A. Allison and Lydia Mashburn write in The Washington Times. “The changes primarily give community banks relief from regulations — which makes sense since they weren’t the drivers of the financial crisis and are crucial for economic growth.”
