Veritas: Biden’s Border Rules Fuel Child Prostitution, Child Labor; The number of kids working in breach of labor rules spiked 37% this year, with tens of thousands feared to be toiling at hazardous sites, as bosses use young migrants to plug the labor gap, officials say

Veritas: Biden’s Border Rules Fuel Child Prostitution, Child Labor:

Teenage girls are being imported from poor countries for prostitution via President Joe Biden’s easy migration rules, a government employee told Project Veritas.

The teenage girls are imported via the Unaccompanied Alien Children (UAC) program, which allows easy entry for migrants who claim they are under the age of 18. The young adults, teenagers, and children are given to the Department of Health and Human Services, which then quickly transfers them to the “sponsors” — many of whom are illegals who earlier paid coyotes and cartels to deliver the youths to the border.

Biden’s deputies “have relaxed a lot of the stringent vetting [of sponsors] by creating these additional field guidance [documents] and there’s a focus on ‘Move the children’ [to the sponsors] as opposed to placing children in safe homes,” said the whistleblower, Tara Lee Rodas, a former Department of Health and Human Services manager. “Right now, it is speed over safety — move the children [to sponsors in] 10 to 15 days” she added.

Progressives applaud the program which has delivered 290,000 children and teenagers since January 2021, most of whom are work-ready teenage males.

“We are paying to put children in the hands of criminals,” Rodas said.

“Our sponsors typically are not citizens, they’re not permanent residents, they don’t have legal presence,” she said, adding: —>READ MORE HERE

The number of kids working in breach of labor rules spiked 37% this year, with tens of thousands feared to be toiling at hazardous sites, as bosses use young migrants to plug the labor gap, officials say:

Federal investigators have recorded a massive 37 percent jump in the number of kids working illegally in America’s factories, eateries and other workplaces this past year, DailyMail.com can reveal.

Department of Labor inspectors found 3,876 children working in breach of labor rules in the 2022 fiscal year. That includes a worrisome 688 who toiled in hazardous conditions, often involving dangerous equipment — a 26 percent rise on 2021.

Labor officials and experts on child abuses said those figures are only a fraction of how many are truly working in violation of labor rules, which may number in the hundreds of thousands.

Faced with low unemployment and a shortage of adult workers, bosses have turned to teens to fill the gap, experts said. Unscrupulous managers also benefit from the influx of desperate young migrants who need cash and don’t ask questions.

Recent abuses include children as young as 13 getting chemical burns from cleaning out slaughterhouses in Nebraska, a child labor scandal in the US supply chains of Hyundai and Kia, and teenagers working with dynamite in Georgia.

Speaking on condition of anonymity, a Labor Department official said the ‘uptick’ in official data ‘shouldn’t be mistaken for the total number of child labor out there in the country, which is likely much more’.

The real numbers, experts said, are between 20 and 100 times higher — or as many as 388,000 children being overworked, and 69,000 doing hazardous tasks that could damage their health or lead to accidents. —>READ MORE HERE
