Because you can definitely cut down on the amount of illegal immigration if you just … lose<\/i> … some of those immigrants:<\/p>\n

In 2014, at least 10 trafficking victims, including eight minors, were discovered during a raid by federal and local law enforcement in Portman\u2019s home state of Ohio. As FRONTLINE examined in the recent documentary Trafficked in America, HHS had released several minors to the traffickers. The committee said the case was due to policies and procedures that were \u201cinadequate to protect the children in the agency\u2019s care.\u201d<\/p>\n

[…] Between October 2016 and December 2017, he said, the agency was unable to locate almost 1,500 out of the 7,635 minors that it attempted to reach \u2014 or about 19 percent.

A crazy, radical idea, I know, but, jeez.<\/p>\n
