The FBI estimates MS-13 gangs now have over 10,000 members in the United States, and have migrated from America's big cities into its leafy suburbs – where neighborhoods, school systems, and police departments are often ill-prepared to cope with its wanton brutality.

President Trump opened fire on the gang during his State of the Union address, blaming it for "the loss of many innocent lives." He charged the gang "took advantage of glaring loopholes in our laws to enter the country as unaccompanied alien minors."
