ALBUQUERQUE - A new DHS report reveals hundreds of thousands of migrant children are missing or unaccounted for in the U.S. The whistleblower report goes on to warn that many of these children “are considered at higher risk for trafficking, exploitation, or forced labor.”

Just a year ago, it was reported that the Biden and Harris administration lost track of 85,000 migrant children. The number of missing children has now more than tripled since then.

Democratic Representative Gabe Vasquez, who represents New Mexico’s second congressional district, a border district, has a consistent record of voting against condemning Biden and Harris’s open border policies and voting against legislation that would shut down the border and hold the child traffickers who take advantage of it accountable.

Additionally, Vasquez has continually tried to downplay the consequences of the open border as it grew into a full-fledged crisis. He even recently went to the U.S.-Mexico border to try to prove there were no illegal crossings, only to come in contact with multiple men crossing at that very moment.

Now, Vasquez’s dangerous open border policies have led hundreds of thousands of children into the hands of sex traffickers, and Vasquez couldn’t care less.

“Democratic Representative Gabe Vasquez has enabled hundreds of thousands of migrant children to go missing while child sex and labor traffickers get away free in New Mexico,” said Republican Party of New Mexico Chairman Steve Pearce.

“Vasquez voted against closing the border, against hiring more CBP agents and against detaining illegal immigrants who have been charged with committing crimes in the U.S.

New Mexico families cannot trust Gabe Vasquez to keep their children and their communities safe. In stark contrast, when she’s elected, Republican Yvette Herrell will work to close the border, equip border patrol, and hold all dangerous criminals accountable.”
