During the last big wave of unaccompanied alien minors (UAMs) in 2019, a Border Patrol agent said something to me that shook me to my core. He said that he was “sick and tired of having to administer rape kits to nine-year olds.”
While that statement might be shocking, it’s actually going on right now. Except in 2021, the problem is much, much bigger, meaning so is the pool of victims. In March of 2019, when that statement was made, there were roughly 9,380 UAMs apprehended at the border. Those numbers have absolutely exploded – nearing 19,000 last month alone. Today, more than 23,000 UAMs are in the custody of the federal government.

The following statements were issued by Dan Stein, president of the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR), in response to President Biden s first address to a joint session of Congress:
Failure to acknowledge the border crisis: In his address to Congress and the American people, President Joe Biden utterly ignored masses of illegal aliens crossing our border – a crisis he created. Many of these migrants are unaccompanied children caught up in a humanitarian, national security and public health crisis. Even worse, the president has offered no viable plan of action to end the crisis that is growing worse by the day.

The following statement was issued by Dan Stein, president of the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR), regarding the nomination of Ed Gonzalez to lead U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE): As part of his unrelenting assault on the integrity of our immigration enforcement system, President Biden has chosen a staunch opponent of interior immigration enforcement to lead the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agency. Harris County (Texas) Sheriff Ed Gonzalez will bring the sort of contempt for enforcement of immigration laws in the interior of the country that Chris Magnus, President Biden s pick for Customs and Border Protection, will bring to controlling our borders. Neither is fit for the important jobs for which they are being nominated, and their appointments should be rejected by the Senate.

WASHINGTON, April 14, 2021 /PRNewswire/ The Biden administration is attempting to secure the nation s southern border by negotiating border security agreements with Mexico, Guatemala, and Honduras moves that closely mirror Trump administration immigration initiatives that were terminated by the current administration.
As apprehension totals continue to soar to historic levels with no end in sight, the Biden administration has chosen to steal a page from the Trump administration s immigration playbook including the 2019 border security agreements with the Northern Triangle countries to effectively regain control of the border. In many respects, the agreements closely resemble the ones President Biden scrapped during his first days in office, commented Dan Stein, president of the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR).
