ROCKVILLE, Md. -- While the debate over what to do about illegal immigration simmers, state and local agencies try to deal with the surge of unaccompanied minors crossing the border into the U.S.
On Monday, Ted Dallas, Maryland's secretary of human services; and Anne Sheridan, the executive director of the Governor's Office for Children, detailed the latest efforts at the state level to tackle the influx of children and teens coming to Maryland. The meeting included discussions on streamlining the legal process as immigrants from Central America look to the courts for help in gaining refugee or asylum status.
But while all that goes on, more than 2,200 children and teens who have made it to Maryland and have reunited with families are trying to adjust to their new settings. Families are enrolling children in area schools and trying to access health care and deal with trauma their children may have experienced along the way. That's where the Tree House comes in.

And here we go again. Maryland Taxpayers are paying for this and will be for years to come.
Keep this in mind when you vote in November!!!
LIES! They are not mostly children and teens! They are mostly adults!
I personally saw a dozen delivered to Salisbury yesterday! They were being indoctrinated in the hallway of the bus station by another illegal alien.
