Some passages:

. . . Three-quarters [thousands]of these unaccompanied minors are young men ages 15 to 17 . . .

. . . A few weeks after surrendering to border officials, they’ll board buses to Los Angeles, Houston or New York City [and other places]. . .

. . . The law requires them to go to school. But they’ve endured trauma on their trek and missed months or years of schooling. Few speak English, and many don’t know Spanish, only Mayan . . .

. . . Their education will cost thousands of dollars a year more than for the average student because they’ll need linguistic experts, tutors, psychological counseling, vaccinations and other support . . .

. . . only 66% of students without English skills ever graduate. . .

. . . In 2014, New York City schools rolled out the red carpet for 1,662 migrants from Central America, committing a whopping $50 million for special programs. .

. . . President Joe Biden seems oblivious. Last week, he announced a program to enable Central American children to apply for admission to the United States from their home country . . .

. . . The Democratic Party pays lip service to reducing economic inequality. But their open border policy is doing the opposite — fostering a permanent underclass working for low wages . . .

. . . Teens who fail to get a diploma are almost doomed to poverty. Nearly half the Central American adult migrants in the U.S. don’t have a high school diploma. Their education levels are lower than other immigrants or the U.S.-born population. And no surprise, they are also poorer . . .

. . . In the Chicago suburbs, these young teens labor nights in meatpacking plants and auto parts plants, come home at 6 a.m. when their shift ends, and then go to school two hours later on almost no sleep, according to a ProPublica expose. No wonder they fall asleep in class and age out of high school before getting a diploma. The #^&#^&#^&#^&ensian era of child labor is being resurrected in our country today, thanks to open borders . . .
