The Obama administration has quietly abandoned its aggressive months-long search for emergency shelters across the nation as the number of children illegally crossing the southern border alone continues to drop.
At the same time, three facilities at military bases in Texas, California and Oklahoma set up as shelters no longer are housing children from Central America.
An official with the Department of Health and Human Services, which led the search for shelters, said there has been a decrease in the number of children apprehended at the border and an increase in those sent to live with families or friends.
“We have begun to see some initial signs of progress along our southwest border,” said Kenneth Wolfe, a spokesman for HHS’ Administration for Children and Families.
The number of unaccompanied children traveling from El Salvador, Guatemala and Honduras, most through the Rio Grande Valley in Texas, surged this year. But officials say the influx slowed this summer likely because of many factors, including the weather, a media campaign urging parents not to send their children to the U.S. and the arrest of some people bringing children over the border.
Advocacy groups that work with immigrants cautioned that there is always a dip in the numbers during hot summer months and that they could spike again.

Why? Did they decide to send them all to Detroit?
Or in other words, the nationwide dispersal to local communities is complete?
Do us all a favor Obama, and squeeze Enrique Neito’s ****’s.
And keep yer paws off ours!
“a media campaign urging parents not to send their children to the U.S.”
Parents sending their kids, hoping they can come later?
How cowardly is that?
Wait until this fall when the United Way does their coercive shtick....I can just see their smarmy pics... trying to make Americans (already taxed to the point of castration) feel like they haven’t done enough!!!!
The United Way is one of the biggest BS operators on the planet.
Never give them a nickle.
Pure heartstring scam.
I want to be sick over this, for lack of push back from the impotent, who cares, and what difference does it make crowd of Republicans, like Paul Ryan, Mittens Romney, Rand Paul, Mitch McConnell, and John Boehner, Scott Brown.
Helping Marxists has to be the goal. There is no other answer. The goal has to be to turn the Americas into Venzuela, on the backs of American and Canadian workers and producers, and Boehner refuses to DEFUND it, which is the only tool at our disposal.
I used to work in a place where the owner had NO ins in place for employees... yet each year, he’d have U Way in our office to beat us up over donations... and would actually POST publically who gave what!
VERY coercive.
So I am going to do without health ins for myself but GIVE to UWay so everyone else can go to the doctor for FREE????? Really??
Which means they have enough of the darling teddy-bear hugging "children" in swing voting districts so that after amnesty and family reunification, those districts won't swing anymore but to Democrat.
Mission Accomplished.
BTW Rick Perry is facing 109 years in jail for defunding that liberal aholes office.
What a farce.
I basically I don’t give to anyone that I don’t personally choose.
Don't have to work too hard to read between the lines on that one. They all have infiltrated our society. That is why school districts are now crying bloody murder. They want the kids they just aren't getting the money that goes with them...careful what you wish for...
True farce. If THIS is not dismissed outright, I’ll be surprised. Rick is throwing these Soros funded loons a life rope. They better take it. Otherwise they stay the punch line of late night comedy, during Democrat primaries. That will be a big help to the party.
So, they're skipping the "processing" phase and just waving them all in?
Why don’t these Fed traitors deport them and send them back to their loser families and crummy countries? Wouldn’t that solve the “housing problem”?
They’re all living in the White House. That’s why Obama golfs all the time. There’s no room for him.
It’s crazy. 109 years? Perry has done nothing wrong.
If convicted and he won’t be, he’s more likely to serve 109 MINUTES, and have his record expunged during even most of that. Isn’t it all too ridiculous? Harrassment backfire.
“The United Way is one of the biggest BS operators on the planet.”
About 25 years ago I told my boss I would no longer donate to United Way.
They could take it from our paycheck and the office manager really wanted 100% participation.
He even asked me to “please” donate a nickel a week. I refused.
It was quite funny !!!
