KRISTI NOEM addresses the 340,000 missing children in Senate Confirmation Hearing

RICHARD BLUMENTHAL: "Will you help me reunite children with their parents who were separated by Trump's family separation policy?"
KRISTI NOEM: "What I'm alarmed by is the over 340,000 children that went missing during the Biden administration."
BLUMENTHAL: "Let's put aside the labels and what happened in the past. There are still 1,000 children who were separated and waiting to be reunited. I'd like your commitment to continuing the effort to reunite them with their parents."
NOEM: "Well, I can't put aside 340,000 children. Keeping families together is critically important to me and to this country. I'm concerned about Laken Riley's family and that they no longer have her... We will uphold our laws and make sure we are doing everything we can to keep children safe from the trafficking and drug epidemics."
