NEW: More than 2,100 children separated at the border by Trump admin.’s “zero tolerance” program “have not yet been reunified” with their parents, according to the task force working to reunite the families.
said last month that he could not guarantee permanent legal status for the families, but added,"we're going to do everything we can to make it work out."
“We believe there are more people reunified because of the court order than 1,786, and we will be looking to share that data with the government,” said Lee Gelernt, the deputy director of the ACLU’s immigrant rights project.The pace of reunifications and scope of the task force’s work, which also includes providing “behavioral health services with a focus on trauma-related care,” has been criticized by some lawyers representing the families.
“Would we have liked them to move quicker? Yes. Do they need to move at a much more rapid pace? Absolutely,” said Gelernt of the ACLU. “Could it have been done with a snap of the fingers? No. It is complex.”
