From the New York Post: A House committee probing the ongoing border crisis has subpoenaed Health and Human Services Secretary Xavier Becerra for information about tens of thousands of unaccompanied migrant children who have disappeared inside the US.

House Homeland Security Committee Chairman Mark Green (R-Tenn.) compelled Becerra, in a Thursday cover letter exclusively obtained by The Post that accompanied the subpoena, to hand over documents related to the “vetting, screening, and monitoring” of migrant sponsors by the Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR).

Without proper vetting, migrant kids are at risk of sex trafficking, forced labor and other forms of exploitation, according to a Homeland Security inspector general’s report released last month.

HHS officials have stalled for more than a month and a half after the Homeland Security panel initially requested the records on Aug. 12. The subpoena responses are due Oct. 3.

On Wednesday, the department finally turned over 717 pages of documents — but 400 of them “contain nothing more than publicly available information,” Green told Becerra.

Last month, the DHS Inspector General released a scathing report and announced, “DHS OIG CONFIRMS: The Biden-Harris administration is releasing hundreds of thousands of unaccompanied alien children without any way to track their whereabouts or status. The administration is simply enabling the cartels and human traffickers.”

The IG report reveals that between 2019 and 2023, over 32,000 ‘unaccompanied’ illegal alien children did not show up for their immigration hearings, and over 291,000 weren’t given required court notices at all.

The Biden-Harris administration reportedly has no idea where the children are.
