Jeff Sessions considers forcing asylum-seekers with sons and daughters in tow to take DNA TESTS to prove children are theirs
'We know for a fact that many adults taking children along are not related to them. Could be smugglers. They could be human traffickers,' Sessions said Tuesday in a radio interview. The host, a conservative Christian leader, said after the radio interview that Sessions and members of Congress have 'talked about making sure that these really are the parents of these kids. They are looking at how to use DNA tests in the field to verify they are parents and not traffickers.' Sessions said the number of family units crossing the border together has grown from 14,000 in 2013 to 75,000 last year. 'It became well-known that if you came with a child, an adult with a child, you weren't going to be deported or prosecuted. This has created a massive loophole for us,' he explained.
