Children from other countries in the region are not fleeing here. And people from Honduras. El Salvador. and Guatemala are fleeing to every other country in the regiona 712 percent increase in asylum cases in Belize. Nicaragua. and the other Central American countries. What the 2008 law actually did was give less protection to kids from Mexico and Canada. and that was a mistake because the U.N. review now makes clear that. as a consequence. we are sending kids who have been sextrafficked back to their abusers. Rather than fix this loophole. this bill would subject all kids to that flawed process. I cant help but note that this will be the only immigration bill with an upordown vote. a bill to strip victims of their protections.
