I abhor the abuse of children. I have been at the border, and I have held unaccompanied children--desperately sent, because they come from desperate circumstances.
To use the Chair's words, you know what Americans can't stand? You know what they hate about this town? They can't stand gun violence and they can't stand the fact that the Judiciary Committee has done nothing about it.
We must remember that child abduction is child abuse and it has devastating emotional, psychological, and even physical consequences for both abducted children and their families left behind.
