The Congressional Black Caucus is calling on Attorney General Jeff Sessions and the FBI to help in the search for missing black girls in the Washington, D.C., area, following an alarming string of missing children cases from the nation's capital. The letter, dated Tuesday and obtained Thursday by The Associated Press, was sent by Congressional Black Caucus chairman Cedric Richmond, D-La., and Del. Hundreds of people packed a town-hall style meeting at a neighborhood school on Wednesday to express concern about the missing children cases. On Tuesday night, she noted, her group had four reports of missing children and only one had been found. Both numbers increased from the year before, which saw 169,655 missing black children and 262,177 missing white/Hispanic children.
