Over 500 migrant children are still being held in custody by the U.S. government, and away from their parents, despite court-ordered reunification.
At least 528 migrant children remain separated from their families, and in U.S. government shelters without their parents, despite court orders that the Trump administration reunite them.
The latest status report the government turned into the court showed that as of August 20th — almost a month after the initial deadline of July 26 — the job remains woefully unfinished.
Twenty-three of the children still being kept from their parents are under the age of 5. And 343 children are in dire circumstances because the government has deported their parents, making finding them even harder.
