Lee demanded answers on what the administration is doing regarding the exploitation and trafficking of children at our southern border. 

“In my home state of Florida, human trafficking is a problem we are working extremely hard to combat, yet the federal government appears to be part of the problem,” said Rep. Lee. “Human trafficking has become one of the biggest issues when it comes to border security, exploiting men, women, and children.
