but just to clarify
0:03
jen uh that what you allowed a camera
0:05
crew in to see the hhs
0:07
facilities what we're talking about here
0:09
are the border
0:10
patrol facilities the detention cells
0:13
the
0:14
the you know these there is a law that
0:16
they
0:17
let me just finish that they are not
0:18
allowed to be there for more than 72
0:20
hours many of them are there for 10 days
0:22
at this point in terms of allowing
0:25
access
0:25
to border patrol facilities for
0:27
reporters you are being less
0:29
transparent than the trump
0:30
administration
0:36
well first of all chris the trump
0:37
administration was turning away kids at
0:39
the border sending them back on the
0:41
treacherous journey
0:42
or they were ripping kids from the arms
0:43
of their parents we're not doing that
0:53
i we are committed to allowing cameras
0:55
into the border patrol facilities
0:57
absolutely i will also say we're
0:58
committed to solutions that's why i
1:00
noted that we
1:01
and we reopened or opened three
1:04
facilities that have
1:05
almost 7000 beds to allow for processing
1:08
these kids
1:09
more quickly out of the border patrol
1:10
facilities
1:21
we absolutely agree these are not places
1:24
for children
1:24
and our focus is on solutions and moving
1:27
them as quickly as possible
1:29
we're also making sure we're processing
1:30
kids more quickly at the border
1:32
some of these kids come with a phone
1:33
number in their pocket it might be of a
1:35
parent
1:36
we want to make sure we're breaking
1:37
through the red type and getting them to
1:38
their parents as quickly as possible
