Nearly every child interviewed has a parent/relative in the United States & were coming to this country to be w/ them. Almost all came with an adult family member and were separated at the border by @CBP. The children were with parents/grandparents/aunts, etc and taken from them.

We share the same frustration,
@andrewkimmel! Toughest part is that it's up to the detainees to cover most of the reunion costs. That's why we use donated frequent flyer miles to help our partners bring families back together.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

This is why they're having trouble reuniting kids with family. They have no system to identify them & reunite them. There's no communication- no willingness to even begin to implement anything humane. They're warehoused, separated, & alone. This is no way to treat a child.

"There were children at this facility who came across w/ parents & were separated from parents... We met almost no children who came across unaccompanied. The U.S. is taking children away from their family unit & reclassifying them as unaccompanied children."
