BORDER BATTLE

>> Paula I want to ░░░░░░░░ you about those children ░░░░░░░░ are directly affected right ░░░░░░░░ there are still about ░░░░░░░░ 000 in U S ░░░░░░░░ tension that the administration ░░░░░░░░ trying to reunify According ░░░░░░░░ our latest poll though ░░░░░░░░ is interesting when asked ░░░░░░░░ there should be a ░░░░░░░░ priority to get kids ░░░░░░░░ their parents back together ░░░░░░░░ of Democrats said it ░░░░░░░░ not a high priority ░░░░░░░░ I m sorry it ░░░░░░░░ a high priority While ░░░░░░░░ 23 of Republicans said ░░░░░░░░ was a high priority ░░░░░░░░ reunify Well it s ░░░░░░░░ to look at the ░░░░░░░░ and clearly they are ░░░░░░░░ with their base Because ░░░░░░░░ the hours following this ░░░░░░░░ order we were talking ░░░░░░░░ top justice officials and ░░░░░░░░ was no plan and ░░░░░░░░ t appear any consideration ░░░░░░░░ to reunify these children ░░░░░░░░ their parents And as ░░░░░░░░ right now this number ░░░░░░░░ at about as you ░░░░░░░░ 2 000 Customs and ░░░░░░░░ Patrol they were able ░░░░░░░░ reunify about 500 kids ░░░░░░░░ as of right now ░░░░░░░░ say they know where ░░░░░░░░ 2 000 children are ░░░░░░░░ there is no grand ░░░░░░░░ for how to reunify ░░░░░░░░ and in about three ░░░░░░░░ unless Congress takes action ░░░░░░░░ a judge in California ░░░░░░░░ to modify this rule ░░░░░░░░ says you can only ░░░░░░░░ a child in federal ░░░░░░░░ for 20 days they ░░░░░░░░ going to have to ░░░░░░░░ again start separating families ░░░░░░░░ and have to add ░░░░░░░░ that number So it ░░░░░░░░ really surprising that over ░░░░░░░░ course of this week ░░░░░░░░ those children with their ░░░░░░░░ has not been a ░░░░░░░░ priority And that is ░░░░░░░░ time duration you talked ░░░░░░░░ Senator corker was saying ░░░░░░░░ he thinks there might ░░░░░░░░ some way to legislate ░░░░░░░░ give the administration essentially ░░░░░░░░ time But that just ░░░░░░░░ keeping families behind bars ░░░░░░░░ And then you re ░░░░░░░░ to run into litigation ░░░░░░░░ whether or not you ░░░░░░░░ indefinitely detain children And ░░░░░░░░ will then be forced ░░░░░░░░ sort of do you ░░░░░░░░ to argue detention indefinitely ░░░░░░░░ against the 700 000 ░░░░░░░░ backlog could take years ░░░░░░░░ do you want to ░░░░░░░░ separated from your family ░░░░░░░░ as of right now ░░░░░░░░ executive order it did ░░░░░░░░ change the administration s ░░░░░░░░ They will continue to ░░░░░░░░ every adult who crosses ░░░░░░░░ border illegally The only ░░░░░░░░ is now they re ░░░░░░░░ to keep families together ░░░░░░░░ they do that But ░░░░░░░░ no clear solution on ░░░░░░░░ 20 day deadline yet ░░░░░░░░ it doesn t seem ░░░░░░░░ Congress is going to ░░░░░░░░ anything passed.
