Strip-search unaccompanied migrant children

These are the same people who looked at the Kayla Hamilton Act and nodded their heads. That piece of work, passed in the dead of December, gave federal agents the power to strip-search unaccompanied migrant children, ostensibly and ridiculously to check them for “gang tattoos.” It turned the Department of Health and Human Services into a branch of the vice squad, all because these members are afraid of looking soft. - Migrant Insider

Mandated federal custody for migrants accused of minor crimes like shoplifting

They are the same ones who lined up for the Laken Riley Act, a law that took the concept of “innocent until proven guilty” and threw it in the Potomac. That act mandated federal custody for migrants accused of minor crimes like shoplifting. Not convicted. Accused. It’s a law that says if you steal a candy bar and you weren’t born here, you don’t get a court date, you get a cage. - Migrant Insider

Democrat Suozzi says he ‘failed’ with vote to pass DHS funding bill: ‘I must do a better job’ - The Hill
