President Donald Trump’s zero-tolerance policy towards adult migrants who bring children with them has been temporarily stopped by a lack of resources, according to White House spokeswoman Sarah Sanders.
Border officers are not referring migrants with children to the Justice Department for prosecution, she acknowledged June 25, adding:
This is a temporary solution … We’re not changing the policy. We’re simply out of resources. And at some point, Congress has to do what they were elected to do, and that is secure our border, that is stop the crime coming into our country. The country has made extremely clear that they don’t want open borders. And Democrats need to understand that, and they need to work with Republicans and find some solutions.
U.S. Customs and Border Protection Commissioner Kevin McAleenan told reporters Monday morning that his agency is not referring family migrants to the Department of Justice, even though Attorney General Jeff Sessions wishes to implement the zero-tolerance prosecution policy.
Officials have not said they are cutting back the enforcement of the zero-tolerance policy against adults.[…]
A growing number of migrants have been bringing children with them to exploit the Flores “catch-and-release” loophole. The New York Times reported:
“This is the reason I brought a minor with me,” said Guillermo T., 57, a construction worker who recently arrived in Arizona. Facing unemployment at home in Guatemala, he decided to head north; he had been told that bringing his 16-year-old daughter would assure passage. He asked that only his first named be used to avoid consequences with his immigration case.
“She was my passport,” he said of his daughter.
However, Democrats are signaling they will oppose any change in the laws that would allow the federal government to keep migrants in detention while their cases are processed. The Washington Post reported.
