The irresponsible care of the children flooding our borders

If you've ever needed to be cleared even to be a volunteer or Sunday School teacher, let alone foster care, I'm sure this will be a mystery--except I suspect the reason there is no check on the families to whom Obama is sending the kids is that these kids' parents are already in the U.S. illegally, and they are the actual "sponsors." Although how that is determined (could be just a trafficker of children) I don't know. These children are being used as political pawns to get his immigration agenda passed.

Governor Jan Brewer of Arizona writes on her Facebook page:

Along with my fellow governors, we participated today in a conference call with the Secretary of Homeland Security, the Secretary of Health and Human Services, the Deputy Director of the Office of Management and Budget, and the Director of the White House Office Intergovernmental Affairs.

During the call, it was confirmed what I have long suspected – the Obama administration has specifically chosen to avoid its due diligence and is releasing Unaccompanied Alien Children into the care and custody of so-called ‘sponsors’ -- individuals about whom the administration does not check immigration or deportation status.

As a Governor, it’s beyond frustrating that, once again, this administration deliberately neglects its duty to act in a responsible manner and uphold the law. But as a mother, it’s unconscionable that federal officials willingly release children into the permanent custody of people of which little – if anything – is known.

I call on the President Obama and his administration to immediately correct this practice and expedite the removal of illegal aliens to their home country. The American people have had enough. They demand immediate action to return illegal aliens – whether adults or minors – to their countries of origin and secure our border.
