Hurd said on CNN’s “New Day” that the process of reuniting the migrant children with their parents isn't going as quickly as he had hoped.

“I think one of the concerns I have is HHS’s ability to do this,” Hurd said of reuniting the families. “We were supposed to have a conference call yesterday with members of Congress and their staff to talk about this process and the phone number didn’t work.”
