19 states sue over Trump admin.'s effort to alter a federal agreement that limits how long immigrant children can be kept in detention.
SACRAMENTO, Calif. — Nineteen states sued on Monday over the Trump administration's effort to alter a federal agreement that limits how long immigrant children can be kept in detention.
The U.S. Department of Homeland Security said last week it would create new regulations on how migrant children are treated. The administration wants to remove court oversight and allow families in detention longer than 20 days. About 475,000 families have crossed the border so far this budget year, nearly three times the previous full-year record for families.
Still, Becerra argued California has a role to play in the case because the state is home to so many immigrants. They said they will be audited, and the audits made public. But the Flores attorneys are concerned that they will no longer be able to inspect the facilities, and that careful state licensing requirements will be eschewed.
