Florida’s Senators teamed up to spotlight a Joe Biden administration policy that they say worsens “human trafficking and exploitation” at the U.S. border with Mexico.
Marco Rubio and Rick Scott, joined by Tom Cotton of Arkansas, Ted Budd of North Carolina, Shelley Moore Capito of West Virginia and Cynthia Lummis of Wyoming, sent a letter to U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas with concerns over the May 31 end of “familial DNA testing.”
Though the memo from Customs and Border Patrol added that Combined DNA Index System testing would continue, that didn’t reassure the Republican Senators, as evidenced by the Rubio-led epistle.
“We write to demand that CBP continue to conduct familial deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) testing at the U.S. southern border,” the Senators state.
They argue that “familial DNA testing has played a vital role in combatting child trafficking and family fraud. According to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security Office of Inspector General (OIG), from June 2019 to September 2021, 8.5% of all rapid DNA tests came back as ‘negative for claimed parent-child relationships.’ Further, in fiscal year 2019, CBP noted that ‘Border Patrol agents identified more than 6,200 fraudulent family members.’”
Charging the Biden administration with “willful neglect of migrant children who have fallen victim to labor trafficking in the United States,” the Senators argue the policy shift “will inevitably result in further exploitation of these desperate children.”
“Specifically, it will enable human smuggling and trafficking and will deepen the pockets of criminal enterprises seeking to traumatize and take advantage of vulnerable families and children,” the Senators claim.

Rick Scott, Marco Rubio and the dozen or so Florida members of the Republican House in Washington ARE THE ONLY AMERICANS who have the ability to write strict immigration laws and border policies. They have failed to address the border problems with new legislation.
Republicans are America’s biggest problem!
Vote all Republicans out of office!

Fantastic work, Mike. Since I currently make more than $36,000 each month from just one simple web business, I commend your efforts. Despite the fact that these are the most basic internet operations occupations, you nd-05 may start making a reliable online income with as little as $29,000.

Hunter Biden needs work. The senile old man has hooked him up with the Mexican Cartel. Drug snorting Hunter gets a com for every illegal that enters the United States. Hunter is now filthy rich thanks to his senile old man and the clueless laughing hyena Vice.

👆 This is why Republicans can barely win the presidency anymore… because of sub-apes like this guy. No one wants to empower Q-Shaman here.

Good evening America,
Everyone knows the White House is guilty as charged.
Keep in mind that our dook 4 brains leftists Nation-Wide including our usual suspect FP commenters have been trained to deny and pretend they dont know what Scott and Rubio say is 100% true.
Given that old demented resident of The White House is likely the only one who actually has no what is really going on Scott and Rubio have nobody to blaim in any sort of congressional action to put a stop to it.
That my friends is by design the “REAL” White House decision makers are laughing at Scott and Rubio because they are correct; but theres not a dam thing anybody can do to stop it.
Well played Biden Puppet Masters. Well Played Indeed.
Sorry to take the wind out of Scott and Rubio’s “bold” announcement of 100% truth.
But Biden’s Puppett Masters, Scott, Rubio, Trump, Desantis, Mccarthy, everyeffinbody, including me, Earl Pitts American, know all about it being true and also we know nobody will or can do anything about it.
There is one person in America though that “Dont Know Anything” and that is Joe Biden.
Oh well at least Scott and Rubio got a headline but nothimg else.
Thank you America,
Sometimes the truth hurts but everything I said is the truth.

White supremacists. Hilarious. Racism goes both ways. Just had A sista look at me cross eyed boarding a flight yesterday as my bag bumped up on her fat, fried chicken eating azz walking down the aisle. She was no Cardi B as she road in coach but she certainly had that attitude. 🤣

Maybe they ought to stop all the red states from passing the reduction of child labor laws. try helping the girls that are trafficked in Ocala, Jacksonville, Miami…that would be more helpful

I’m not seeing the connection.. how does the DNA border testing policy stop human trafficking? How bout all those good ole Christian boys go home to their wives/girlfriends/circle je#ks and leave the trafficked girls/women alone. This particular aspect of it is totally perpetuated, supported, bought and paid for by American males. Post the “Johns” pics on social media. Let’s see what effect that could have on the human trafficking problem,, Rick and Marco!
