Another gift from the incompetent Bush admin, the gift that keeps on giving.
Regarding the “2008 human trafficking law” that Zero hinges everything on and is pointed to as really being a Bush created problem - I believe that the “law” actually hearkens back to the Clinton era and was essentially expiring in 2008, so the extension with whatever baggage was what happened then.
The real bottom line is that the law - whoever it can be blamed on irrelevant - is not being followed at all. Given that some sort of extra scrutiny is required under the law for minors before deportation - OK, Zero - show us anyone that has been through the process and deported. Just not happening. Why give more money to make a system that is not effectively deporting minors found to not be part of “human trafficking” at the heart of that law.
