Reporting Highlights

• More Moms Deported: An exclusive data analysis found Trump has deported moms of U.S. citizens at four times the rate of his predecessor.
• Left Stranded: Because American-born kids can't legally join their parents in immigration detention, some end up with friends or strangers when their parents are detained or deported.
• New Directive: Trump administration officials revised a document advising how ICE officers should interact with parents, removing the word "humane."
