WASHINGTON - The United States could help pay for transportation, healthcare, legal services, and career and educational programs for migrant families separated under former President Donald Trump’s “zero tolerance” border strategy, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security said on Monday.
Thousands of children were separated from their parents at the border under Trump’s “zero tolerance” policy, which charged parents with federal immigration offenses and sent them to jails while children were labeled “unaccompanied” and placed in shelters. But advocates say border officials separated families both before and after that policy was in place.
The Biden administration has said it will consider bringing deported parents back to the United States, an option outlined in a Feb. 2 executive order, which created the family reunification task force.Michelle Brane, who most recently worked as a senior director with the New York City-based Women’s Refugee Commission, will be the executive director of task force.
Biden moved to quickly rescind several of Trump’s restrictive immigration policies, including a COVID-era policy to rapidly expel unaccompanied minors caught at the U.S.-Mexico border. Last week, the administration said it opened a temporary shelter for minors in Texas that was used during the Trump presidency and is taking steps to speed up releases of the children to sponsors.
Maro_Virino Thank you for the return of decency to the treatment of families that come to the USA in desperation. May you be successful. 🙏
Criminal!! Absolutely criminal what the trump administration did to those families! Child abuse!! Pure and simple!
Trump did his best to keep America safe on his time with opposition like Democrats Trump could do more if y'all gave him chance but y'all attacked everything Trump did would like Democrats do what they can and keep America safe... Godcomment...
The magic word 'morality'. Republicans don't understand that. Remember the only ones not immigrants in this country are Native Americans. The rest of us came from somewhere else.
Irresponsible parents dumped the kids over the border in hopes that they would have a better life. Imagine that. That’s not Trumps fault. But without a wall it’s now Biden’s fault.
'The numbers of children and families arriving at the U.S.-Mexico border have risen in recent months and Biden' But there's no crisis here, folks. What's Biden doing about it? Oh, he renamed the facilities in which he's holding the children.
And reuniting families by revoking the Schengen travel ban will happen when ?
Grant immediate, unconditional citizenship to all families who suffered under this immoral policy and cruel violation of human rights.
Lol.. I thought there was a pandemic in America? You're not kidding anyone...

He means the family separation policy introduced by Obama, continued by Trump and now practiced by Biden. It will be interesting to see how much child trafficking Biden's hasty intentions will cause.

Team Trump did DNA tests at the border and 80% of the accompanying adults were not related to the child. So is Phony Joe going to return the children to their kidnappers?
Reunite them somewhere south of the Rio Grande.
