发帖数: 61690 | 1 Senior Justice Department official Gene Hamilton confirmed on Wednesday that
the government can only detain families together for “up to 20 days" after
President Trump signed an executive order ending the separation of parents
from their children at the border.
Hamilton said that the Flores settlement — a 1997 consent decree that
prohibits the federal government from keeping children in immigration
detention for more than 20 days — will stay in place unless Congress or the
courts take action, CBS News’ Steven Portnoy reported.
The Department of Justice is also asking a Federal District Court in
California to extend the amount of time that the government can detain
families for as long as their legal proceedings last.
he announcement came shortly after Trump signed the order to end the
practice of separating migrant children from their parents when caught
crossing the border illegally.
It calls on the Department of Homeland Security to detain families together
as they away trial.
The order also calls on the Justice Department to expedite immigration cases
that involve families and calls on the Pentagon to provide space to house
the families.
The administration’s policy of family separation had been widely criticized
by both Democrats and Republicans and drawn worldwide condemnation.
Trump said that his “zero tolerance” policy against illegal border
crossings will remain in place but children will now be detained with their
parents.
“We’re going to have strong, very strong borders, but we’re going to keep
the families together,” Trump said. “I didn’t like the sight or the
feeling of families being separated.”
Trump had falsely tried to blame Democrats for his administration’s policy
and said that federal laws and court rulings prevented him from stopping the
family separations.
“Congress and the courts created this problem, and Congress alone can fix
it,” Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen had said earlier this
week. | i*****9
