Sloppy last-minute legislation

What triggered the crush of kids crossing our border? A bill rushed through Congress by Democrats in just two weeks, and signed by a lame duck Republican president in December 2008.

The William Wilberforce Trafficking Victims Protection Reauthorization Act of 2008 was introduced on December 9, 2008. It became law December 23rd.

Rushed legislation tends to be flawed legislation.
