If many children don't meet strict asylum criteria but face significant dangers if they return, the United States should consider allowing them to stay using humanitarian parole procedures we have employed in the past, for Cambodians and Haitians. It may be possible to transfer children and resettle them in other safe countries willing to share the burden.

What is the author's purpose in this excerpt?

to express an opinion about US asylum policies

to prompt feelings of sympathy in the reader

to suggest a suspenseful atmosphere about the asylum process

to provide facts and details about Cambodian and Haitian children

    The answer is: to provide facts and details about Cambodian and Haitian children.

    Explanation:

    Let's discard the others first: policies and opinions aren't mentioned here, it's just informative, so this is why the first option isn't correct. This excerpt cannot prompt feeling of sympathy as it is not stating exactly what about children ... There is no suspense about the asylum process, as it barely mentions it at the beginning. At the end, what we get out of this is some details and facts about Cambodian and Haitian children, we know that as the whole excerpt focuses and encapsulates everything on the children.
