Pelosi: The Biden Administration Has Inherited a ‘Broken System at the Border’

‘This is a humanitarian challenge’

EXCERPT:

PELOSI: "Veronica Escobar, our colleague from — representing El Paso, and yes, it is. The — actually, the facts are these, there are more children, about 600, 700 more children, unaccompanied children coming over the border. This is a humanitarian challenge to all of us. What the administration has inherited is a broken system at the border, and they are working to correct that in the children's interest. I'm so pleased that the President, as a temporary measure, has sent FEMA to the border in order to help facilitate the children going from one — the 72-hour issue into where they are cared for as they are transferred into family homes or homes that are safe for them to be. So this, again, is a transition for what was wrong before to what is right. Of course, we have to also look to Central America, and Mexico and the rest. The corruption, the violence, all of that’s so bad.”
