CNN: 497 Kids Still Separated from Their Families at the Border
EXCERPT:
CANEROTA: "Now to an update on the effort at the border to reunite all the children who were separated from their parents by the Trump Administration. According to a new court filing, almost 500 of them, 497 children, are still separated this morning. Remember, the deadline that was set by a judge to reunify these families was July 26, so that was more than a month ago. Let’s bring in Bakari Sellers, former Democratic state lawmaker from South Carolina and a CNN commentator, and Scott Jennings, former special assistant to President George W. Bush and a CNN commentator. Great to have both of you. Bakari, this deadline has long since passed. How can 500 kids still not be with their families?"
SELLERS: "Well, first, this is why elections matter and elections have consequences."
