Missoulian: Senate chairman warns against border policy change

Chairman Menendez’s Opening Remarks at Hearing, “Dangerous Passage: Central America in Crisis and the Exodus of Unaccompanied Minors”

“Just as it’s important that we address this humanitarian crisis, in my view, it’s equally important that we don’t rush to change our laws in a way that would strip these children of their rights to due process. In dealing with this crisis, it is imperative that we understand its root causes and why it is not about America putting out a welcome mat, it’s about a desperate effort by desperate parents to do what any parent would do to protect their child from violence and the threat of death.”
