US widens effort to unite migrant families separated under Trump
Al Jazeera
Trump administration separated thousands of migrant parents from their children in 2017 and 2018 amid border crackdown.
The Biden administration has launched a new programme that it says will expand efforts to find and reunite migrant families who were separated at the US-Mexico border under President Donald Trump’s zero-tolerance policy on irregular crossings. A US federal task force said on Monday that the programme would help find many parents who are in remote Central American communities but whose children are in the United States. Those parents would then be allowed to return to the United States, where they will get at least three years of legal residency and other assistance.More Related News
