New York, August 4 (RHC)-- The Donald Trump administration has separated more than 900 children from their parents at the U.S.-Mexico border since a San Diego federal judge ordered a halt to the practice last summer.
According to the American Civil Liberties Union, the ACLU, the U.S. federal government is abusing its discretion to determine what makes a parent unfit. In his motion, ACLU attorney Lee Gelernt said: “This issue has reached a critical juncture. Hundreds of children, some literally just babies, are being irreparably damaged because their parent may have committed a minor offense in the past, even a traffic offense.”
