Jen Psaki: Self-Separating Families Unintended Consequence of Joe Biden Migrant Policy
White House press secretary Jen Psaki acknowledged Thursday that migrant families were self-separating to get their children into the United States.
That certainly is an unintended consequence, Psaki said. And we have been clear and we have continued to convey the message that our border is not open, that it is a treacherous journey.
But President Joe Biden repeatedly makes it clear that unaccompanied minor migrants apprehended on the Southern border will be allowed into the United States.
The only people were not going to let sitting there on the other side of the Rio Grande by themselves with no help are children, Biden said during a press conference in March.
