HHS opens new site for migrant children near packed Donna facility
Fox News
The Biden administration is opening a new temporary site to house unaccompanied migrant children, near the migrant facility in Donna, Texas -- where pictures emerged of migrants packed together in tight quarters, fueling criticism of the Biden administration’s handling of the border crisis
The latest site is next to the Customs and Border Protection (CBP) facility in Donna, Texas where child migrants are processed, before being sent to HHS facilities elsewhere. Axios, which first reported the development, reported it will allow CBP to release child migrants to HHS quicker. In a statement, the agency said that while it is working to build capacity, "additional capacity is urgently needed to manage the increasing numbers" of migrant children. It said the site is intended as a temporary measure.More Related News
