This is a serious violation of our nation\u2019s human trafficking and child labor laws.<\/p>\n<p>According to Rep. Virginia Foxx (R., N.C.), chair of the House Committee on Education of the Workforce, &#8220;migrant children are being trafficked for the purpose of being employed illegally in the United States.&#8221; Foxx is requesting internal documents from the Departments of Labor, Health and Human Services, and Homeland Security to hold senior Biden administration officials accountable for the chaos unfolding at the southern border.<\/p>\n<h3>Record Number of Unaccompanied Minors Encountered<\/h3>\n<p>Customs and Border Protection recently encountered a record 152,000 unaccompanied minors in 2022 and 324,000 in the last 26 months. Unaccompanied minors are the most likely to be sold into slavery and forced into sex work. One recent study estimates that 60 percent of unaccompanied minor children &#8220;are caught by cartels and exploited through child pornography and drug trafficking.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h3>Investigation into Policies Enabling Terrorists<\/h3>\n<p>The House Homeland Security Committee has launched an investigation into policies that it says are enabling &#8220;terrorists to take advantage of the glaring vulnerabilities&#8221; at the southern border. Both investigations indicate that lawmakers in the Republican-controlled House want to hold senior Biden administration officials accountable for the chaos unfolding at the southern border.<\/p>\n<h3>Biden Administration&#8217;s Failure to Protect Children<\/h3>\n<p>The Biden administration\u2019s &#8220;failure to protect these children&#8221; suggests there is a systematic &#8220;breakdown&#8221; with the agencies responsible for &#8220;ensuring these children are not exploited in employment after they have left federal custody,&#8221; according to the lawmakers.<\/p>\n<h3>Plan for Integrating Racial Equity into Anti-Trafficking Efforts<\/h3>\n<p>To address the issue of trafficking of illegal minors, the State Department held a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/migrant-children-released-into-united-states-by-biden-admin-are-being-put-to-work-lawmakers-say\/\" title=\"Biden's admin releases migrant kids, lawmakers claim they're made to work.\">virtual public meeting earlier<\/a> this month to assemble a &#8220;plan for integrating racial equity into U.S. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/the-biden-administration-wants-to-fight-human-trafficking-using-a-racial-justice-and-equity-lens\/\" title=\"The Biden Administration Wants To Fight Human Trafficking Using a 'Racial Justice and Equity Lens'\">government <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/report-25m-people-trafficked-over-past-year\/\" title=\"Report: 25M people trafficked over past year\">anti-trafficking efforts<\/a><\/a>.&#8221; This effort sparked anger among GOP border hawks, who accused the administration of pushing a woke cultural agenda instead of directly combating human traffickers.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>report.
