We've had 1,148,000 unaccompanied children and family members enter this country illegally. Been apprehended and they've been dispersed all over America. It's overwhelmed our adjudication system. We've only removed about 12,000 of that...about the 820,000 family members, that's about 1.5%. So that creates a huge incentive for more people. There's a survey done in Guatemala. A third of Guatemalans intend to migrate to the United states. (06:18–06:26)
