Attorney General Jeff Sessions is exploring the possibility of using DNA tests to verify the parentage of illegal alien adults who attempt to cross the southern border with children, Family Research Council President Tony Perkins said in a statement Tuesday after interviewing Sessions on his radio show Washington Watch.
Sessions is talking to congressional members and is hoping for a legislative fix. The AG wants an immigration policy that is just, fair and enforceable. They talked about making sure that these really are the parents of these kids, Perkins said.
He continued, They are looking at how to use DNA tests in the field to verify they are parents and not traffickers. The reality is if American parents put their kids through what these immigrant parents have done to their kids they would be charged with child abuse.
Around 12,000 children are currently in the custody of Health and Human Services after entering the United States. According to Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kirsten Nielsen, 10,000 of the 12,000 children in the care of HHS arrived in the U.S. as unaccompanied minors.

If I have to show id to buy anti histamines these interlopers from Central America can stand a cotton swab in the mouth.
This is gonna make the libs go EVEN MORE NUTZ! LOVE IT!
Geraldo just exploded on Hannity. This is the perfect example where man using a female brain instead of his math, reasoning brain.. goes off on a ridiculous rage and unable to THINK through a situation. Emotion doesn’t help solve a problem.. reason it through!
The Libs will oppose this because they know the kids are being trafficked.
How to Prove a Parent-Child Relationship for Citizenship or Immigration Purposes
When official documents aren’t sufficient to show that you’re a child’s father or mother, you may need to provide DNA or other evidence.
These days the ID type of PCR test is cheap, fast, and portable. I think ANDE has a bunch of good ideas in that field.
I don’t know, if we can prove human trafficking through the kids DNA, it might shut the Demonrats up for a few seconds.
What was his complaint?
He was in a panic over children being treated as the media has been describing them .. taken from their parents.. etc.. and geraldo told hannity just becsuse Hannity didnt have emotion about this.. dont say geraldo has none either..he was livid, yelling. Hannity just quit talking.
Testing any non-citizen entering the US is way too intrusive. But anyone apprehended for entering the country illegally should be fingerprinted, facial and retina recognition obtained, and dna tested so the Government has all the information that could be used for confirming identity and if they commit further criminal acts it can be recognized who they are.
Confirming parents to children would be a great benefit and traffickers could then really be prosecuted.
They should have papers that could be verified in the country of origin.
I watched that garbage.....it was ugly.
Yes, exactly!
There would need to be a policy for legally adopted children and parents.

Yes...its called legal & verifiable DOCUMENTATION.

You do realize that a HUGE chunk of the illegal aliens in this country actually came in legally (e.g., tourist, student, temp work) but simply never left?
Get FULL biological identity info on ALL incoming foreigners.
DNA tests typically require at least three weeks....so the family will be sitting idle in some center before the results come back.
Then you get to the important question...if ‘Juan’ isn’t the father...just how quick do you dump ‘Juan’ into the single men’s center and then hustle the kids back into a kid’s only center?
What if ‘Juan’ has been led by his wife to believe both kids are his, for the past twelve years, only to be told by ‘Jerry’ (the US border patrol dude) that no...the kids are not his. Yeah, we could actually make this into a TV show and see some might curious events going on.
What if ‘Juan’ refuses to take a DNA test? Can you legally force some foreign guy to take the test? You can’t even do that to an American guy.....so how can you force ‘Juan’ to do this?
No matter what these idiots do to fix this....it really only makes it worse in the end, and creates a totally new mess. Yes, you are correct...denial of entry is the only method that resolves this completely.
Yes, agreed, any illegal entrants done as you say.
Well, geez, obviously none are adopted, none are relatives or friends’ kids and not one mama fooled around with the milkman.
