Dozens of Senate and House lawmakers unleash on Biden-Harris admin’s child migrant 'cover-up’
Fox News
Republican lawmakers in the House and Senate are tearing into the Biden administration's handling of more than 500,000 migrant children who have come across the border.
More than 500,000 unaccompanied alien children (UAC) have crossed the border without a parent or guardian since 2021. When unaccompanied children come to the border, they are currently turned over by Border Patrol to Health and Human Services (HHS) who will attempt to find them a sponsor within the country -- typically a family member.

The letter claims the administration has cut back on background checks and vetting procedures, as part of an effort to speed up the process. They say the administration "continued Vice President Harris’s longtime priority of cutting back on information sharing between HHS ORR and law enforcement related to unaccompanied children and sponsors."
