Biden-Harris admin. hasn't provided Congress with status of lost unaccompanied minors: Grassley

Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa), former chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, said the Biden-Harris administration has "left Congress in the dark" on the status of unaccompanied minors that the government has lost track of and still hasn't provided reports on the situation to Congress.

The minors were released in the U.S. from the border.

Grassley's office said the reports are "overdue," noting in a press release that the "current administration’s Department of Health and Human Services (HHS)’s Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR) hasn’t completed a single annual report on its immigration-related expenditures, policies or statistics since taking office."

Grassley said Biden and Harris have "left Congress in the dark for the entirety of their administration and lost track of tens of thousands of vulnerable migrant children in the process."

"How can President Biden or Border Czar Harris claim to be addressing this crisis when they can’t, or won’t, provide Congress statutorily required information on their efforts to do so?" he said. "I’ve proposed reforms to address the glaring errors in this administration’s Unaccompanied Children program. It’s high time the Biden-Harris HHS let the sunshine in and show its work so that Congress can continue hammering out solutions based on the facts at hand.” 

Grassley wrote a letter to the administration pushing for more information on the situation.
