Every day, thousands of children go missing, leaving families in anguish. This issue has been exacerbated by previous open border policies, according to a statement released on National Missing Children’s Day 2025.
The current administration is committed to protecting children and targeting predators with legal action. "This National Missing Children’s Day, my Administration resolves to protect the most innocent among us—and to strike down every predator, trafficker, kidnapper, and abuser who targets our young people with the full force of the law," the President stated.
Efforts are underway to secure the southern border and combat child sex trafficking. The President highlighted initial actions taken: "One of my first actions in office was to declare a national emergency at the southern border. I also designated cartels as Foreign Terrorist Organizations and Specially Designated Global Terrorists to end their campaign of violence and mayhem."
The administration's strategy includes deporting criminal illegal aliens and stopping child trafficking into the country. "My Administration is doing everything in its power to recover our missing children, and reunite them with their loved ones," noted the President.
As National Missing Children’s Day is observed, support is extended to families searching for their missing children. The administration aims to assist law enforcement agencies in reuniting these children with their families. "We will continue our work of building a future where every child is safe, valued, and empowered," concluded the President.
