The order just signed by Trump directs DHS to maintain custody over immigrant families while criminal and immigration proceedings are pending, and it directs AG Sessions to ask the Flores judge to modify the settlement to allow family detentions https://www.buzzfeed.com/zoetillman/trump-just-signed-something-about-children-being-separated?utm_term=.ahE1a0JjE9#.eu9vZ08bAY …

There's no commitment in the Executive Order to be transparent about the fate of the children who have already been taken. No indication that they'll be returned, and no promise to show proof that they've been returned. /3

Walter Shaub ✔ @waltshaub


In fact, the Exec Order doubles down on the new zero tolerance policy. That means that, even if they do make good on keeping families together (which is not guaranteed, given their legal interpretation), we may only be trading separation for more permanent detention. /4

An HHS official tells @weijia that there will NOT be special efforts made to reunite children who have already been separated from their families bc of the Zero Tolerance Policy, despite Trumps EO. Process will proceed for minors currently in the unaccompanied children program.
