Rep. Kathleen Rice (D-N.Y.) said on Monday that there is no reason for federal authorities to lose track of nearly 1,500 immigrant children who crossed the border on their own.
There should be a way to track these people. They know where theyre going, they dont just release people into the ether, Rice told CNNs New Day.
"There is no reason for this to happen."

These are the defenseless kids who are fleeing violent circumstances in their home countries coming here to be taken care of and we are losing them, Rice added.
The Trump administration has been heavily criticized after it was reported that the Department of Health and Human Services lost track of nearly 1,500 unaccompanied minors placed under U.S. custody.

This is terror. They want these horror stories. They want word to get out that this is what well do to you and your babies if you break our rules. Its sick.
