Trump Administration Has Separated Dozens of Children From Their Parents for a Second Time, AP Finds
The AP found the government has re-separated dozens of children from parents despite a court settlement, with some families deported or held in detention.
- An Associated Press investigation found the Trump administration has re-separated dozens of migrant children from their families, violating a landmark 2023 legal settlement intended to protect those previously separated.
- Under the 'Ms. L' settlement, families received protections after the 2017 border policy championed by Stephen Miller separated thousands, including 11-year-old Ederson Galicia Alva.
- Attorneys report over 11,800 individuals are covered by protections meant to prevent ongoing harm caused by initial separations, yet immigration agents continue detaining and deporting these families.
- Assistant Secretary Lauren Bis, a Department of Homeland Security spokesperson, defended the agency's actions, stating enforcing immigration law is "not optional" and accusing "radical NGOs" of seeking to thwart operations.
- As the Trump administration pursues a broader anti-immigration platform, it has vowed to deport more than 1 million people per year, complicating efforts to reunite and support separated families.
