Tijuana Authorities Investigating Migrant Groups Trying to Buy Children to Cross into the United States “Some migrants in Tijuana are trying to purchase children from vulnerable single mothers in local shelters so they can more easily cross into the United States, according to shelter directors, migrants and Tijuana law enforcement authorities,” Wendy Fry reports for The San Diego Union-Tribune. “U.S. border authorities have been warning since June 2018 about people fraudulently using children who aren’t theirs to pose as family units and gain entry into the United States a claim that critics said was overblown. But now, authorities in Tijuana are warning migrant mothers to keep their children close by and supervised, after reports of men offering to purchase migrant children in order to cross.” “I can’t go to work because I can’t take my eyes off my boys,” a migrant from Honduras says. “They want to rob our kids so they can cross into the United States.” Click here to read more. “Don’t look now, but quietly or at least in a way that hasn’t really been absorbed by much of America, there is positive movement on health care reform. Before anyone knows it, we might just find that the ground has been set for meaningful reform,” The Dallas Morning News editorial board writes.

Lloyd Smucker (R-PA) writes in Lancaster Online. “These important and forward-thinking changes will prepare our farmers of today with the tools for tomorrow.”
