End legal loophole: Trump administration changes rules for keeping illegal immigrants with children

The Trump administration plans to end a legal “loophole” that allows families of illegal immigrants to enter the United States, Fox News writes.

The new rule will replace the court order, known as the “Flores Settlement,” which helped create a catch and release policy for immigrant families.

Under the new policy, migrant families will be held together in illegal detention centers while immigration judges review their cases. Now they will not be released in 20 days after the detention, as was done earlier on the basis of the “settlement in the Flores case”.

«Президент Трамп дал понять, что он собирается любой ценой защитить американскую границу, и это правило играет жизненно важную роль в стратегии восстановления целостности нашей иммиграционной системы и нашей национальной безопасности», — заявил представитель администрации изданию Washington Times.

Earlier in the United States, a deadline for detention was established for migrant children: it followed that families with children should have been released after 20 days, even if a decision on their case has not yet been made. At the same time, migrants without children often spend several months in temporary detention centers.

The new rules, which will take effect in 60 days, were announced by the acting head of the US Department of Homeland Security, Kevin Makalinan.

On Daily Caller new national family detention standards will be part of the implementation of the new policy.

The new law is intended to replace the so-called Flores settlement, reached several decades ago and determining how long authorities can hold migrant children and in what conditions these children should be detained. According to him, the authorities have no right to keep children in detention centers for more than 20 days.

Now, authorities can send families detained at illegal border crossings to temporary detention family centers for such a period that will be needed to make a decision of the migration services.

The “Flores Settlement” refers to the 1980 case when a girl named Jenny Flores, who was then 15 years old, was detained with adults after being detained while crossing the US border after escaping from Salvador. Starting from 1997, this settlement obliged the government to send illegal children to special centers to care for them no later than 20 days after their detention, as well as provide them with access to medical care and visits to relatives.

As a result, this resulted in the fact that the children were often released with their parents, and then they did not appear at the courts for their cases, remaining in the United States illegally.

В июле на слушаниях в Комитете по надзору Палаты представителей Конгресса США, конгрессвумен от Мичигана Рашида Тлайб обвиняла исполняющего обязанности главы Департамента национальной безопасности Кевина Макалинана и других должностных лиц администрации в попытках отменить действие «Урегулирования по делу Флорес» с целью «держать детей под стражей дольше».

Makalinan dismissed this accusation. He explained that he would like families to be together for the time necessary to complete their immigration process and decide their cases by the immigration courts.

«Мы не хотим менять положения об условиях содержания под стражей. Мы хотим систематизировать эти положения, чтобы поддерживать наивысший возможный уровень, — сказал он. — Мы хотим, чтобы семьи были вместе, и добиваемся этого посредством иммиграционного процесса, который будет справедливым и быстрым. Но он не может быть завершен в течение 20 дней».

Democrats called such detentions of illegal immigrants "inhuman," while many Republicans accused Democrats of hypocrisy, saying they were silent about such detentions under the Obama administration.

According to employees of the Department of Homeland Security, restrictions on the duration of migrant families in special centers this year have increased the influx of migrants from Central America, writes with the BBC.

Они утверждают, что новое правило разобьет миф о том, что если привести с собой в США детей, они послужат «пропуском» для освобождения из центра временного содержания.

«Сегодня правительство приняло важный закон, который позволит Департаменту внутренней безопасности должным образом сохранять целостность семей и в целом улучшить иммиграционную систему, — заявил Макалинан. — Этот закон позволит федеральному правительству обеспечить выполнение принятых конгрессом иммиграционных законов и обеспечит достойное и уважительное отношение к детям, содержащимся в американских центрах».
