The chaos behind family reunifications

• Many parents or guardians are awaiting their own immigration hearings, so they don’t have driver’s licenses and can’t easily get a hold of a car to pick the children up.
• The Biden government paid $112 million to contractor MVM Inc. to take the kids from holding centers in Texas to the cities where their legal guardians live.

• There are documented cases of young adults reverting to wetting the bed or becoming mute.
