In a recent interview, DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas addressed mounting concerns about child trafficking at the U.S. southern border. He clarified that while the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) handles initial custody, responsibility for unaccompanied migrant children ultimately falls under the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS).

Mayorkas admitted to systemic issues, including failures in tracking and reporting obligations, while emphasizing that not all unaccompanied minors are trafficked. However, critics, including Former Acting ICE Director Tom Homan, argue that current border policies have worsened vulnerabilities for migrant children.
