Thank you for inviting me to testify about the crisis of trafficked and missing migrant children. We must take urgent action to rescue these children from exploitation, including slave labor and sexual trafficking. Many are working in dangerous conditions to repay debts to smugglers. The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services has a poor track record of protecting these vulnerable children, often losing them to abusive sponsors. We need immediate measures like DNA testing for children and their sponsors, strict penalties for negligent sponsors, and improved oversight. Child trafficking should be treated as a national security threat, with intelligence and law enforcement mobilized to dismantle these networks. We have a moral obligation to protect these children, and the time to act is now. Thank you for your attention to this urgent crisis. I'm ready to answer any questions.

The discussion centers around the alarming issue of child trafficking in the U.S., particularly concerning unaccompanied alien children. It is claimed that the government has become complicit in a vast trafficking network, with allegations that children are being released to unvetted sponsors, often linked to criminal activities. Whistleblowers from HHS reveal systemic failures in vetting sponsors, leading to children being placed in dangerous situations. The conversation highlights the role of NGOs and government agencies in facilitating this crisis, with calls for accountability and action to rescue the missing children. The urgency of the situation is emphasized, urging the public to recognize the gravity of the issue and take action to protect vulnerable children from exploitation.

Good afternoon. This joint hearing focuses on the trafficking, exploitation, and missing unaccompanied children at the Southwest border. We are examining how current border policies have allowed dangerous cartels and traffickers to exploit vulnerable children. The number of unaccompanied minors arriving has surged, with nearly 530,000 encounters under the Biden administration, compared to less than half that during the Trump administration. Many children arrive with no clear family connections, often appearing drugged. The administration claims to have humanitarian policies, yet these situations reflect a failure to protect these children. Agencies like CBP, ICE, and HHS are overwhelmed and unable to properly vet sponsors, leading to over 85,000 children reported lost. This is unacceptable, and we must address human trafficking and ensure the safety of these children. Thank you to our witnesses for being here today.

The speaker shows wristbands that cartels force people to wear when crossing the border, highlighting the horrors of trafficking and smuggling. They share a photo of a terrified girl who was later revealed to have been rented by a man. The speaker criticizes the vetting process for children in HHS custody, pointing out that case managers lack training in interviewing traumatized children and evaluating documents. They question the thoroughness of the vetting process, mentioning the use of numbers on children's clothes and arms, and the release of children to sponsors who may be in the country illegally. The speaker challenges the secretary on the use of DNA tests and background checks, citing low percentages. They also mention the suspension of DNA requirements in case files. The speaker expresses concern over the large number of missing children under the secretary's watch.

Millions of migrants, including unaccompanied children, are crossing the US southern border, and the broken immigration system and criminal exploitation are putting children at risk. Four whistleblowers, including federal employees and government contractors, share their experiences at the Pomona Fairgrounds' migrant intake facility in 2021. They reveal that children were being placed with unvetted sponsors, including criminals and traffickers. Contractors like MVM Inc and Maxum Healthcare Services were awarded multimillion-dollar contracts, but there was a lack of organization and training at the facility. The whistleblowers also highlight the failure to address trafficking and violence, with cases of rape and violence being handled in-house instead of involving law enforcement. The government and contractors need to be held accountable for the missing children and the misuse of taxpayer dollars.

An investigation reveals potential issues within the U.S. government's Unaccompanied Children Program. Since 2021, an average of 400 unaccompanied children are allegedly smuggled into the U.S. daily. The Department of Homeland Security announced they have lost track of over 300,000 children. The investigation claims to have discovered dangerous placements, confronted a CIA contractor moving children, and exposed a Florida trafficking network. Children in detention centers allegedly report not knowing their sponsors. MVM, a contractor with ties to intelligence agencies, is allegedly involved in moving children. Some MVM employees reportedly wear masks and hide their faces. Some children allegedly arrive with fake names and are not properly vetted. The investigation highlights cases of children placed with sponsors who exploit them for labor, sometimes beginning as young as five years old. One girl recounts being forced to work by her aunt, becoming homeless, and facing blackmail. Another recounts witnessing the rape and murder of young girls while traveling to the U.S. In Florida, a couple is accused of running a labor trafficking ring, holding debts over children's heads. The investigation concludes that the Biden-Harris administration's border policies contribute to child trafficking.

The speaker states the U.S. federal government is the world's largest child sex trafficking organization. They claim that under President Biden's open border policies, the U.S. has experienced the largest mass invasion in history, costing hundreds of billions of dollars and resulting in a significant demographic shift. The speaker asserts that Biden, Harris, and Mayorkas intentionally weaponized illegal immigration to transform America, leading to a surge in child trafficking. They state that over 550,000 unaccompanied alien children (UACs) will have been lost by the end of the current administration, compared to 30,557 UACs accounted for during President Trump's last year. The speaker claims that HHS and ORR admitted to losing contact with over 85,000 UACs in 2023, a number that an inspector general later revised to over 320,000. They allege that DHS, HHS, and ORR created policies to expedite the movement of UACs to unvetted sponsors, resulting in children disappearing into labor and sex trafficking. The speaker's research indicates the federal government knowingly facilitated these criminal acts.

A 17 year old migrant died in US custody this week. Child died yesterday in border patrol custody. Migrant children who come to The US without their parents here are working twelve hour shifts or more at factories even though it violates child labor laws. Along the southern border, you see thousands of these wristbands. These are children being sold into sex slavery, and you don't even know what they are. So now approaches a 100,000 children according to public reports. A 100,000 children lost by your department and the Biden administration. lawmakers urging the Biden administration to provide explanations for the disappearance of 85,000 migrant children. Migrant children sold in to labor trafficking and sex trafficking. At least five HHS staff members said they were pushed out after raising concerns about child sick safety.

The speaker questions the ACLU's stance on 85,000 missing children and suggests that the sponsors of these children are not real. They claim that the sponsors are involved in a racket and are not answering the phone. The speaker believes that a large number of these sponsors are involved in sex trafficking and accuses the current administration of supporting this through their policies. They also mention a partnership with cartels for human trafficking.

The speaker asserts that the United States federal government is the world’s largest child sex trafficking organization in modern history, stating that thousands of unaccompanied alien children (UACs) are being raped at this very moment. He is a retired Border Patrol deputy patrol agent in charge in the San Diego sector, with 24 years of service, who worked under five presidents and says only one president secured the border: Donald Trump. He contrasts the border era under President Joe Biden as the opposite, describing Biden’s first day as the start of 94 executive orders that cascaded from Washington, obliterating immigration policy that had secured the border. He claims Biden, through Department of Homeland Security secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, created policy out of thin air, ignored federal immigration law, and facilitated “the largest mass invasion into America that the world has ever seen.” The speaker contends that the United States will spend hundreds of billions of dollars in four years to fund the needs of over 50,000,000 illegal aliens who populate the nation, and that “between one in six and one in seven residents in America is an illegal alien,” describing the demographic shift as the greatest in modern history. After his Border Patrol career, he wrote a bestselling book titled The intentional destruction of American immigration system and produced two documentaries. He asserts that Biden, Harris, and Mayorkas intentionally, strategically, and purposely weaponized illegal immigration as a tool to transform America, and that within this invasion, the unspoken evil of child trafficking—specifically child sex trafficking—has flourished. He projects that by the end of this administration, the number of trafficked children will have grown to over 550,000 UACs. He notes that these children are arrested, released into America, and then lost. To illustrate, he contrasts CBP data: in Trump’s last year, CBP arrested 30,557 UACs who were accounted for and not lost; in Biden’s first year, CBP arrested 147,975 UACs, most of which are unaccompanied and lost. In 2023, Health and Human Services officials Javier Bacera and Robin Marcos are said to have admitted that their agency had no contact with over 85,000 UACs. He asserts that DHS, HHS, and ORR did nothing to correct this humanitarian disaster; instead, they created policies to increase the efficiency of moving UACs from the border to the interior of the United States to unknown and unbonded sponsors, with unaccompanied alien children being handed off to total strangers. A year later, the inspector general overseeing DHS released a report stating the number of lost UACs was not 85,000 but over 320,000. The speaker and his business partner, Ryan Matt, spent six months traveling across America filming a documentary titled “What Is Treason Trafficked?” through which they spoke with officers, agents, and whistleblowers from various agencies. They say the federal government knowingly and actively facilitated these criminal acts.

The speaker testifies about the urgent need to protect migrant children, including the alarming number of 85,000 missing children. They highlight the exploitation and trafficking that these children face, including working overnight shifts, being sold for sex, and suffering abuse and neglect. The speaker shares their personal experience at a facility in California, where they witnessed indigenous children who couldn't ask for help due to language barriers. They describe the alarming practices of sponsors, including multiple sponsorships and debt bondage. The speaker emphasizes the importance of oversight, transparency, and accountability within the system, as well as the need to prioritize safety over speed. They suggest involving data analysts to rescue children and prosecute criminals, improving the vetting process for sponsors, and holding sponsors accountable. The speaker also calls for an end to retaliation against whistleblowers.

The speaker addresses the committee, expressing concern for the safety of migrant children, particularly the 85,000 missing children. They highlight the exploitation and trafficking of children, including forced labor and sex trafficking. The speaker shares their personal experience at a California intake site, witnessing indigenous children from Guatemala who cannot ask for help due to language barriers. They describe cases of multiple sponsors, debt bondage, and the lack of access to law enforcement for these vulnerable children. The speaker urges the committee to prioritize oversight, transparency, and accountability within the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). They suggest utilizing data analytics to rescue children and prosecute criminals, improving the vetting process for sponsors, and holding sponsors accountable. The speaker also calls for an end to retaliation against whistleblowers.

HHS, under the current administration, has ended its role as the principal vector for child trafficking in the U.S. According to the speaker, during the Biden administration, HHS became a collaborator in child trafficking and slavery. The speaker claims the administration is aggressively trying to find the 300,000 children that were lost by the Biden administration.

Human trafficking is a severe humanitarian crisis affecting men, women, and children, particularly at the US-Mexico border. Many migrants suffer unimaginable abuse at the hands of cartels, with evidence of assaults found along border paths. Traffickers erase identities to smuggle children under false names, and recent reports show that 324,000 unaccompanied children are unaccounted for due to policies prioritizing speed over safety. This has resulted in children being placed with unvetted sponsors, increasing their risk of exploitation. Oversight failures in NGOs caring for these children have also been exposed, with cases of abuse and neglect. Trafficking includes horrific acts like organ harvesting, targeting vulnerable migrants. Urgent action is needed: designate cartels as terrorist organizations, reinstate DNA testing, and hold accountable those responsible for protecting these children. The future of these children relies on immediate and decisive action.

Today, we discuss how the Biden administration's open border policy aids drug and human traffickers. Despite warnings and evidence, little action has been taken to address the issue. Whistleblowers have revealed that unaccompanied migrant children are being handed over to criminals, including sex traffickers. Over 85,000 children are unaccounted for after being apprehended or released to sponsors. The administration's lack of response to these concerns shows neglect and a disregard for the safety of these vulnerable children. Action is needed to prevent further harm.

There are no taboos in America except sex with children. A nationwide operation rescued over 200 sex trafficking victims. One rescued child performed 60,000 sex acts. The US government has become the middle man in a child trafficking operation, and has lost 450,000 children who are then sexually destroyed, raped to death, and have their organs harvested. Sponsors taking in migrant children only see them as dollar signs. The Biden administration puts children in homes with sponsors, with no follow-up. To stop child trafficking, the border must be shut down. After Joe Biden took office, arrests went from 500 to over 5,000 in one day. 65% or more of the kids are from Guatemala. 41% of victims were recruited online. Texas' Fort Bliss army base is a filthy prison. The United States of America government is the world's largest child sex trafficking organization in modern history.

What the Biden administration did with respect to child trafficking is one of the great crimes in human history. Over 500,000 children were illegally trafficked into the country under the previous administration. When we've gone and looked for these children, Martha, the addresses that the US government provided, in other words, the records that the government kept under Joe Biden, are all fake. Nobody ever checked if the addresses were real. Nobody ever checked if the sponsors were real. Nobody ever checked if they were really even relatives or parents or relations or safe. We we recently recovered a a young illegal alien, for example, who had been raped repeatedly by the adult male that the Biden administration handed to her. She was under constant video surveillance and was coached exactly what to say if an officer ever knocked on her door so that she would never be rescued.

The speaker claims their soon-to-be-released research shows 35,000 "tender age kids" have been rescued. They allege that 70% of documentation from sponsors, arranged by NGOs through HHS, is fraudulent. This created a pipeline of children into sex trafficking and slave labor. Criminal case files are being built by interviewing these children to find out what happened to them. The speaker states they are identifying, locating, and rescuing more children, and building criminal files based on testimony and fraudulent vetting documentation. They predict many NGO employees will be arrested.

The Biden administration's border policies have led to a surge of unaccompanied children, creating opportunities for exploitation. Vulnerable children are being trafficked with taxpayer dollars due to a failure to properly vet sponsors. One interviewee shared that on her journey over the border, people in her group were robbed, several girls including her were raped, and she witnessed the decapitation. Children are not going to their parents but are being trafficked, with government officials complicit. The HHS ORR program is a failure, allowing children to be trafficked on their watch. Over 500,000 children have arrived at the border alone and are funneled through agencies and contractors with little training to protect them. Children are being placed with sponsors with criminal history and gang affiliations. There is a market for juvenile organ harvesting, and cartels rely on gangs to facilitate trafficking within the U.S. Tax dollars are funding child and human trafficking, essentially slavery, sanctioned by the government and NGOs.

"I state without reservation that the United States federal government is the world's largest child sex trafficking organization in modern history." "The probability that thousands of these UACs are being raped at this very moment is 100%." "Biden, through Department of Homeland Security secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, created policy out of thin air, ignored federal immigration law, and facilitated the largest mass invasion into America that the world has ever seen." "What did DHS, HHS, and ORR do to correct this humanitarian disaster? Nothing." "In August 2024, the inspector general with oversight over over DHS issued a report stating that number lost UACs was not 85,000, it was over 320,000." "However, after conducting numerous interviews with officers, agents, and whistleblowers from every alphabet agency and department, it was made clear to us that the federal government knowingly and actively facilitated these criminal acts."

Over 500,000 unaccompanied migrant children have been encountered at the southern border since the Biden administration began. Many of these children have been lost in the system, with over 85,000 reported out of contact after being released to sponsors. Concerns about their safety have risen, as some have fallen victim to labor exploitation and trafficking. Overcrowded detention facilities have led to poor living conditions, and children are sometimes released without thorough background checks. Advocacy groups warn of the risks these children face, including human trafficking. Critics argue that the lack of clear immigration policies has contributed to this crisis. The need for accountability and effective oversight is urgent, as many children remain unaccounted for. The situation highlights a significant humanitarian crisis that demands immediate attention and action from policymakers.

HHS, under the current administration, has ended its role as the principal vector for child trafficking in the U.S. According to the speaker, during the Biden administration, HHS became a collaborator in child trafficking and slavery. The speaker claims the administration is aggressively working to find the 300,000 children allegedly lost by the Biden administration.

We need more resources to address the crisis of unaccompanied migrant children, which has escalated under the Biden administration. Over 526,000 unaccompanied children have crossed the border since 2021, with many released to sponsors without proper vetting, leading to exploitation and trafficking. The Office of Refugee Resettlement's budget for unaccompanied children reached $6.9 billion in 2023, yet significant mismanagement has resulted in tens of thousands of children going missing or being placed in dangerous situations. Reports indicate that many children are forced into labor or unsafe conditions after being released. The administration prioritized speed over safety, failing to protect vulnerable children from further victimization. This situation represents a monumental failure that requires urgent attention and accountability.

I appreciate Senator Grassley's investigation into sponsors of migrant children, highlighting cases of abuse and trafficking. Concerns are raised about the safety of children like Carmen and Maria, released to sponsors with criminal histories and gang affiliations. Over 500,000 unaccompanied children have entered the US, lacking protection from trafficking. The speaker, a whistleblower, faced retaliation for reporting on MS 13 gang affiliations. Despite challenges, the speaker thanks Senator Grassley for protecting whistleblowers and advocating for child safety.

I joined HHS ORR to help reunite children with their families but found they were being trafficked due to contractor negligence. Despite reporting cases, children were sent to unsafe places with fake sponsors. Leadership ignored concerns and prioritized speed over safety. Calls to check on children were stopped, and a "strike team" was created to expedite removals, disregarding trafficking warnings. My offers to ensure contract compliance were rejected. This program is a failure, allowing taxpayer-funded child slavery. I urge senators to investigate and demand action to save these exploited children.
