HHS diverting millions in funding marked for vaccine efforts to housing migrant children
2021-08-28
[FoxNews] $187.5 million had been earmarked for 'vaccine planning, distribution, monitoring and tracking'.

The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) has notified Congress that it will transfer an additional $589 million, some of which comes from funding marked for COVID-19 vaccination efforts, to its program to shelter unaccompanied migrant children who have entered the U.S. at the southern border -- part of more than $4 billion that has been diverted to the program this year.

HHS informed Congress that it is diverting $225 million in National Institute of Health (NIH) funding that was part of the December COVID-19 relief bill to the unaccompanied children (UAC) program, as well as $364 million in HHS funding that was passed as part of the American Rescue Plan (ARP), a congressional source told Fox News. Data shared with Fox News confirms that source's account.

#1  Let's see... 14,000 kids...$2 billion...that's $142,857 per kid. Do they really need luxury hotels? Couldn't we just put them all in tents out in the boondocks?
