“My line in the sand moment was when I found out that GSA had awarded a contract to a company to transport unaccompanied minors,” shared current General Services Administration (GSA) Senior Contract Specialist Clarissa Rippee, revealing shocking details about a $347 million contract awarded to the company responsible for transporting unaccompanied minors across the United States. “It felt like someone kicked me in the gut,” Rippee added.

Rippee, described the unaccompanied minors as being treated like “commodities… like potato chips on a truck.” The contract, which she highlights as an enormous “big money business,” involves moving children, often separated from their families, under inhumane conditions.

“Once you know, you cannot unknow…It’s about the children, and it’s my duty now to speak up.”
