So, let\u2019s talk about your memo. Here\u2019s what it says for the number two policy option: QUOTE \u201cAnnounce that DHS is considering separating family units, placing the adults in adult detention, and place the minors . . . in the custody of HHS as unaccompanied alien children,\u201d or UACs. But those children you recommended classifying as UACs were NOT actually unaccompanied, were they, Mr. Wolf?<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\"><b><span style=\"font-size:14.0pt\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,serif\"><span style=\"color:#0e101a\">WOLF:<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/b><span style=\"font-size:14.0pt\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,serif\">&nbsp;I\u2019m sorry can you repeat your question?<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\"><b><span style=\"font-size:14.0pt\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,serif\"><span style=\"color:#0e101a\">ROSEN:<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/b><span style=\"font-size:14.0pt\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,serif\"><span style=\"color:#0e101a\">&nbsp;You said you we\u2019re going to separate \u2013 this is what you said in your memo\u2014and I\u2019m quoting, you \u201cconsidered separating family units and treating the children as unaccompanied.\u201d They weren\u2019t unaccompanied, they were part of family units.

Let me just say, it was not my memo. You keep referring to it as my memo. As I said last year, Secretary Nielsen relied on not only her operators but also her policy \u2013 her immigration attorneys to develop policy options.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\"><b><span style=\"font-size:14.0pt\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,serif\"><span style=\"color:#0e101a\">ROSEN:<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/b><span style=\"font-size:14.0pt\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,serif\"><span style=\"color:#0e101a\">&nbsp;You were part of her team, and as her chief of staff, you have direct relationship and responsibility.

You\u2019ve been Acting Secretary for 10 months.&nbsp; Do you now consider it your job to speak truth to power when utterly abhorrent policies like this get proposed, and do you support ending family separation.&nbsp; Do you stand by that, you testified to that?<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\"><b><span style=\"font-size:14.0pt\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,serif\">WOLF:<\/span><\/span><\/b><span style=\"font-size:14.0pt\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,serif\">&nbsp;As I testified last year, I testify again this year. I support the President\u2019s decision when he issued an executive order to stop that practice, as the department did. And we executed that executive order I believe in June 2018.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\"><b><span style=\"font-size:14.0pt\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,serif\"><span style=\"color:#0e101a\">ROSEN:<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/b><span style=\"font-size:14.0pt\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,serif\"><span style=\"color:#0e101a\">&nbsp;Thank you. I\u2019d like to talk about the ending of TPS quickly. Nevada is home to more than 4,000 TPS holders and their families. These are mothers and fathers, members of their communities, 1,700 of those are essential critical infrastructure workers, meaning they provide services that Americans depend on to operate during this COVID-19 pandemic, and all of our response efforts according to DHS guidance.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\"><span style=\"font-size:14.0pt\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,serif\">And so, we know what happened last week, the decision to deport TPS recipients. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\"><span style=\"font-size:14.0pt\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,serif\">In light of the federal appeals court decision, what are the Department\u2019s plans for TPS for the countries of El Salvador, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Sudan?<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\"><b><span style=\"font-size:14.0pt\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,serif\"><span style=\"color:#0e101a\">WOLF:<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/b><span style=\"font-size:14.0pt\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,serif\"><span style=\"color:#0e101a\">&nbsp;So, we\u2019re not taking any measures at this time, as you know. We can\u2019t do that, I believe, until <\/span><\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-size:14.0pt\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,serif\">about <span style=\"color:#0e101a\">52 days after that court decision. 45 days is allowed for individual parties to appeal that decision\u2026we certainly expect that decision to be appealed. So basically it starts from that 52 or 53 day, we then look at a number of those TPS decisions<\/span> that have been issued. You\u2019re probably looking at the earliest 180 days out before any individuals, any TPS orders are enforce. So it\u2019s still very much in the courts unfortunately. We\u2019ll continue to play it out in the courts even though we did a have a 9<sup>th<\/sup> Circuit decision last week. There\u2019s still very much\u2026and there\u2019s other lawsuits I would say in other court cases, depending on the country that we\u2019re talking regarding TPS. All that is to say there is not one answer on how we\u2019re addressing TPS the decision was made.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\"><b><span style=\"font-size:14.0pt\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,serif\"><span style=\"color:#0e101a\">ROSEN:<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/b><span style=\"font-size:14.0pt\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,serif\"><span style=\"color:#0e101a\">&nbsp;Would you consider speaking out <\/span><\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-size:14.0pt\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,serif\">particularly on <span style=\"color:#0e101a\">protect<\/span>ing essential workers that are important to our<span style=\"color:#0e101a\"> pandemic <\/span>response?<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\"><b><span style=\"font-size:14.0pt\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,serif\"><span style=\"color:#0e101a\">WOLF:<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/b>&nbsp;<span style=\"font-size:14.0pt\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,serif\">So, we\u2019ll continue to look at that. Again, we have about 180 days before there\u2019s going to be any action taken. But these are temporary programs. TPS is a temporary program. We litigated, we talked about this in 2017. Policy decisions were made by prior secretaries at that time, regarding TPS. If this is a population that the United States Congress feels very passionate about, very much like DACA, very much like these other types of temporary populations then I would encourage Congress to find a lasting solution for these individuals. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\"><b><span style=\"font-size:14.0pt\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,serif\"><span style=\"color:#0e101a\">ROSEN:<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/b>&nbsp;<span style=\"font-size:14.0pt\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,serif\">I would love for us to do that too. And in the meantime, we are very short of those essential workers in many of our communities across this country and during a pandemic I would just urge special consideration of those families who are putting their own lives on the line to save others as we\u2019ve seen this week with over 200,000 families whose lives are forever altered by the loss of someone that they loved.
