His work has appeared on Newsweek.com, Slate.com, CBSNews.com, MotherJones.com, DailyKos.com and NPR’s web site. Fiore’s political animation has appeared on CNN, Frontline, Bill Moyers Journal, Salon.com and cable and broadcast outlets across the globe.\r\n\r\nBeginning his professional life by drawing traditional political cartoons for newspapers, Fiore’s work appeared in publications ranging from the Washington Post to the Los Angeles Times. In the late 1990s, he began to experiment with animating political cartoons and, after a short stint at the San Jose Mercury News as their staff cartoonist, Fiore devoted all his energies to animation.\r\nGrowing up in California, Fiore also spent a good portion of his life in the backwoods of Idaho. It was this combination that shaped him politically. Mark majored in political science at Colorado College, where, in a perfect send-off for a cartoonist, he received his diploma in 1991 as commencement speaker Dick Cheney smiled approvingly.\r\nMark Fiore was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for political cartooning in 2010, a Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Award in 2004 and has twice received an Online Journalism Award for commentary from the Online News Association (2002, 2008). Fiore has received two awards for his work in new media from the National Cartoonists Society (2001, 2002), and in 2006 received The James Madison Freedom of Information Award from The Society of Professional Journalists.",

As they walked on the pedestrian bridge leading to the border crossing, Mexican immigration authorities stopped them and detained Vladimir and another minor, she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Staff at the shelter in Tijuana for minors intervened, and Vladimir was released several days later, she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A U.S. Customs and Border Protection spokesperson said in a statement the agency processes \"all unaccompanied alien children who present themselves at and between the ports of entry.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The safety of children in our custody is of paramount concern,\" the CBP spokesperson said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the agency has also stated that the number of asylum seekers they process daily at ports of entry depends on detention space in their facilities, translation requirements and other factors.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On Dec. 1, a few days after he was released, Toczylowski again accompanied Vladimir as he tried to present Vladimir for asylum. This time, they took a taxi from Tijuana 20 miles east to the Otay Mesa border crossing, a smaller port of entry than Tijuana's.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Toczylowski feared CBP officials at Otay Mesa would not accept Vladimir. But she\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> knew U.S. Rep.

But she said the supervisor kept saying no because the facilities were at capacity.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"He kept telling us we needed to vacate the premises and that we would get in trouble if we continued to loiter there,\" Toczylowski said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That's when Jayapal walked up to the CBP supervisor and asked what he meant when he said their facilities were at capacity.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The CBP supervisor said, 'Ma'am, you need to step back. I don't need to answer that question,' and (Rep. Jayapal) said 'No. I am a member of Congress and in fact you do need to answer that question because we fund your agency,'\" Toczylowski recalled.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The back and forth continued until the CBP supervisor relented and took Vladimir for processing, said Toczylowski.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"In many ways, he was really, really lucky because he had lawyers who were volunteering and who were there to fight for him,\" she said. \"It's like winning the lottery that he also had Rep. Jayapal there that day.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Toczylowski said she still gets text messages from other unaccompanied minors who arrived with the caravan in Tijuana last winter, but who have not been able to request asylum from U.S. officials.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>A Mother and Son Reunite\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>After being held by border officials, Vladimir was transferred to a shelter that holds about 1,600 unaccompanied teens in South Florida. He was there for two months before being released to his mother in California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nationwide, approximately 11,500 unaccompanied minors are living in shelters that are run or contracted by the Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR), part of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On average, unaccompanied minors spend three months at ORR shelters before they are released to family members and other sponsors in the U.S. to await immigration hearings, according to the agency.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>ORR is unable to release minors immediately because they must work with other federal agencies to verify the identity of sponsors, according to the agency's \u003ca href=\"https://www.acf.hhs.gov/orr/resource/unaccompanied-alien-children-frequently-asked-questions\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">website\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Looking back at the year that she was separated from her son, Veronica Aguilar feels thankful to the people who helped him get across the U.S. border.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"They pushed for his right to seek asylum,\" she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11731843\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-11731843\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/03/RS35736_IMG_0572-qut.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/03/RS35736_IMG_0572-qut.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/03/RS35736_IMG_0572-qut-160x120.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/03/RS35736_IMG_0572-qut-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/03/RS35736_IMG_0572-qut-1020x765.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/03/RS35736_IMG_0572-qut-1200x900.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Veronica Aguilar and son Vladimir shop for groceries in Pinole.

But he doesn't elaborate on anything else about the two months he spent there.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I don't want to talk about it,\" Vladimir said flatly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But his mom said when they would talk on the phone while he was at the shelter, he was depressed. Now, she still sees pain inside him. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She suspects those emotions are similar to what she felt after she was locked up for seven months by immigration authorities when she applied for asylum.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I don't want him as a young person to live with that his whole life,\" said Aguilar, adding that she plans to find a psychologist he can talk to.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Vladimir said he is also a little nervous about his new high school in Pinole. He only speaks Spanish and all of his classes are in English. But he's excited to get out of the house and meet people his age.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We'll see what happens,\" Vladimir said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Through it all, Aguilar said she has been amazed by the generosity of strangers. She and Vladimir are staying with a married couple who opened up their home and sponsored her so she could be released from an immigrant detention facility in Southern California last summer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Aguilar said Ann and Kent Moriarty, a former middle school teacher and a mechanical engineer, have supported her like family.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"They've helped me so much,\" she said. \"It's really been a blessing.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Recently, Aguilar also received an unexpected present in the mail: a $100 dollar gift card from a professor in Ventura County who heard about her story. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The envelope also included a note welcoming Vladimir to the U.S. Aguilar read it aloud to him, her voice breaking.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I'm also an immigrant who came here looking for a better life,\" the professor said in her note. \"Everything is possible. Good luck.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As Aguilar slowly folded the piece of paper back in the envelope, she let out a long sigh. She wondered aloud how strangers could offer help like that.

Since the June ruling, immigration officials have reunited nearly all of those children with parents, or released them to relatives or sponsors in the U.S.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In his \u003ca href=\"https://www.aclu.org/legal-document/ms-l-v-ice-order-class-status\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">order\u003c/a> expanding the class, Sabraw cited a recent \u003ca href=\"https://www.oig.hhs.gov/oei/reports/oei-BL-18-00511.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">report\u003c/a> by the Inspector General for the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services that found the government had initiated family separations at least a year earlier than the court knew.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Inspector General said, “thousands of children may have been separated during an influx that began in 2017, before the accounting required by the court.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The IG's investigation also revealed that inconsistent record keeping of those separations meant there was no way to know the total number of children separated from a parent or guardian by immigration authorities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Attorneys with the ACLU who represent migrant parents called the OIG's report a bombshell.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Late last year they had asked Sabraw to clarify whether families separated before the judge's June injunction should be eligible for the same relief.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In his 14-page decision, Sabraw wrote that the parents who had been excluded from the class had experienced the same alleged violation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Like the current class members, they too were separated from their children,\" Sabraw wrote. \"They were not reunited with their children despite the absence of any finding they were unfit parents or presented a danger to their children.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The court made clear that potentially thousands of children’s lives are at stake, and that the Trump administration cannot simply ignore the devastation it has caused,\" ACLU attorney Lee Gelernt said in a statement in response to Sabraw's ruling.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The judge deferred any discussion of what remedy should be offered to the families to future briefings, but at a hearing in February had indicated the first step would be for the government to provide an accounting of the new class members.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"So it seems to me if this motion is granted, step one, which is a very significant step, would be the accounting, what are the numbers, who are they, where are they? Step two is the remedy,\" Sabraw said. \"When there is an allegation of wrong on this scale, one of the most fundamental obligations of the law is to bring to light what that wrong was and what is the scope of the wrong.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In his order Friday Sabraw defined the additional class members as all migrant families separated between July 1, 2017, and June 25, 2018.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>During that time a total of 47,083 children passed through the Office of Refugee Resettlement, the agency within the US Health and Human Services that's responsible for the care of migrant children who arrive without a parent or have been separated from them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to a court filing by the agency's deputy director, Jallyn Sualog, all of those cases would need to be reviewed to identify which children were separated from a parent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The government had argued that the burden was too great and would take too long.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sabraw rejected that reasoning.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Although the process for identifying newly proposed class members may be burdensome, it clearly can be done,\" he wrote.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sabraw concluded that the extra effort required to identify the additional children could not be considered \"unfair.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The hallmark of a civilized society is measured by how it treats its people and those within its borders,\" he wrote.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>When Zero Tolerance Really Began\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>The \"zero tolerance\" policy resulted in widespread criminal prosecution of parents, whose children were taken from them when they were sent to jail, and transferred to government shelters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The policy appears to be the public adoption of family separations that began in the earliest days of the Trump administration.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That was not what Sabraw understood when he issued his June 26, 2018 injunction to halt the practice.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At a Feb. 21 hearing Sabraw reminded government attorneys that as recently as June 6, 2018, in a motion to dismiss the class action lawsuit on behalf of parents whose children were taken from them, they stated there was no policy or practice of separating families.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“That was the government’s response, and I accept that that response was made in good faith. But thereafter much has come to light,” Sabraw told Deputy Assistant Attorney General Scott Stewart. “What appears to be unknown to everyone here was that ORR had a tremendous spike in the number of unaccompanied children being delivered to them, far before the lawsuit was filed.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Also unknown to the court, was that O.R.R. had delivered those children out to sponsors before June 26.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sabraw said his decision to limit reunifications to children still in O.R.R. care on June 26th was based on what he knew at the time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At the Feb. 21 hearing ACLU attorney Lee Gelernt, told the judge he reserved the right to expand the class further if earlier family separations proved unlawful.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>How the Trump Administration Expanded Family Separations\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Immigration officials have long separated children from parents and guardians for cause under an anti-trafficking statute, known as the Trafficking Victims Protection Reauthorization Act (T.V.P.R.A). In 2016, however, those separations rarely occurred, according to the IG's report.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Children separated from parents made up less than half a percent (0.3 percent) of the children referred to the O.R.R. in 2016, the report noted, but by August of 2017 that number had increased to 3.6 percent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The IG found that the increase resulted from a letter the U.S. Attorney General sent to federal prosecutors in the Spring of 2017, ordering them to prioritize criminal charges for immigration-related offenses.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The IG also found that the administration began piloting the \"zero tolerance\" policy in El Paso, Tx. in July 2017.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>By December 2017 numerous immigrant advocates alleged a major increase in separations in a complaint filed with the DHS that called for the Inspector General of the agency to investigate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The ACLU filed a class action suit challenging the practice in February of 2018.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Trump administration did not announce its \"zero tolerance\" policy until May of 2018, one month after it had been expanded to the whole southern border.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Correction: An earlier version of this story indicated the government had been ordered to immediately identify thousands more families. In fact, the government has been ordered to expand a class action lawsuit to include thousands more families. However, in an earlier hearing, the same judge said an “accounting” of new class members is the first step towards a remedy.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n",

Step two is the remedy,\" Sabraw said. \"When there is an allegation of wrong on this scale, one of the most fundamental obligations of the law is to bring to light what that wrong was and what is the scope of the wrong.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In his order Friday Sabraw defined the additional class members as all migrant families separated between July 1, 2017, and June 25, 2018.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>During that time a total of 47,083 children passed through the Office of Refugee Resettlement, the agency within the US Health and Human Services that's responsible for the care of migrant children who arrive without a parent or have been separated from them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to a court filing by the agency's deputy director, Jallyn Sualog, all of those cases would need to be reviewed to identify which children were separated from a parent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The government had argued that the burden was too great and would take too long.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sabraw rejected that reasoning.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Although the process for identifying newly proposed class members may be burdensome, it clearly can be done,\" he wrote.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sabraw concluded that the extra effort required to identify the additional children could not be considered \"unfair.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The hallmark of a civilized society is measured by how it treats its people and those within its borders,\" he wrote.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>When Zero Tolerance Really Began\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>The \"zero tolerance\" policy resulted in widespread criminal prosecution of parents, whose children were taken from them when they were sent to jail, and transferred to government shelters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The policy appears to be the public adoption of family separations that began in the earliest days of the Trump administration.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That was not what Sabraw understood when he issued his June 26, 2018 injunction to halt the practice.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At a Feb. 21 hearing Sabraw reminded government attorneys that as recently as June 6, 2018, in a motion to dismiss the class action lawsuit on behalf of parents whose children were taken from them, they stated there was no policy or practice of separating families.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“That was the government’s response, and I accept that that response was made in good faith. But thereafter much has come to light,” Sabraw told Deputy Assistant Attorney General Scott Stewart. “What appears to be unknown to everyone here was that ORR had a tremendous spike in the number of unaccompanied children being delivered to them, far before the lawsuit was filed.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Also unknown to the court, was that O.R.R. had delivered those children out to sponsors before June 26.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sabraw said his decision to limit reunifications to children still in O.R.R. care on June 26th was based on what he knew at the time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At the Feb. 21 hearing ACLU attorney Lee Gelernt, told the judge he reserved the right to expand the class further if earlier family separations proved unlawful.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>How the Trump Administration Expanded Family Separations\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Immigration officials have long separated children from parents and guardians for cause under an anti-trafficking statute, known as the Trafficking Victims Protection Reauthorization Act (T.V.P.R.A). In 2016, however, those separations rarely occurred, according to the IG's report.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Children separated from parents made up less than half a percent (0.3 percent) of the children referred to the O.R.R. in 2016, the report noted, but by August of 2017 that number had increased to 3.6 percent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The IG found that the increase resulted from a letter the U.S. Attorney General sent to federal prosecutors in the Spring of 2017, ordering them to prioritize criminal charges for immigration-related offenses.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The IG also found that the administration began piloting the \"zero tolerance\" policy in El Paso, Tx. in July 2017.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>By December 2017 numerous immigrant advocates alleged a major increase in separations in a complaint filed with the DHS that called for the Inspector General of the agency to investigate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The ACLU filed a class action suit challenging the practice in February of 2018.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Trump administration did not announce its \"zero tolerance\" policy until May of 2018, one month after it had been expanded to the whole southern border.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

The report states that because the Department of Homeland Security continues to provide the Office of Refugee Resettlement with “limited information about the reasons for these separations,” this may impede the ORR’s ability to determine placements and continue to impact the accuracy of data surrounding separated children.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"alignright\">\n\u003ch3>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11722223/toddler-separated-from-family-at-border-is-returned-in-san-francisco\">Toddler Separated From Family at Border Reunited with Mom in San Francisco\u003c/a>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cfigure>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11722223/toddler-separated-from-family-at-border-is-returned-in-san-francisco\">\u003cimg decoding=\"async\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/01/Sindy_Ortiz_Flores_reunion_013019-1020x765.jpg\" alt=\"\">\u003c/a>\u003c/figure>\n\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>Currently, the exact number of children separated from a parent or guardian by immigration authorities is unknown, but according to the Department of Health and Human Services in June, there were more than 2,700 children in its care. Thousands more children may have been separated during an influx that began in 2017 prior to the accounting required by the court however, the report continued.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There are at least 200 children that have been taken since the judge issued the ban and while there are a handful of cases marked by criminal history, the criteria the Department of Homeland Security is using to \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11711704/after-eight-month-separation-an-salvadoran-asylum-seeker-reconnects-with-4-year-old-son\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">justify these separations\u003c/a> is unclear.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The continued family separations are functioning in a legal loophole which allows for exceptions when immigration officials believe a parent poses a danger to a child, a policy that previous administrations have sometimes also used to separate children from their families for their protection. But as the House oversight committee learned, federal law doesn’t define what makes a parent a threat.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There is nothing in law which either precludes arbitrary separation or defines the terms for separations,” said Commander Jonathan White, who used to help run the agency responsible for immigrant children in government care and now works at the U.S. Public Health Service. “Neither is there anything in law that gives us the authority to say that child is not separated after all and refuse a placement.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>During his testimony, White urged members of the House Committee on Energy and Commerce to pass a law clarifying under what circumstances it’s acceptable to take a child away from a parent. Advocates who testified explained that in some of the recent separations, parents were deemed unfit due to immigration violations or “other reasons,” underscoring White’s concern about the policy’s gray area.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"alignright\">\n\u003ch3>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11721246/san-francisco-therapists-help-migrant-families-cope-with-trauma\">San Francisco Therapists Help Migrant Families Cope With Trauma\u003c/a>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cfigure>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11721246/san-francisco-therapists-help-migrant-families-cope-with-trauma\">\u003cimg decoding=\"async\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/01/RS34846_IMG_9423-qut-1020x652.jpg\" alt=\"\">\u003c/a>\u003c/figure>\n\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>When asked if he would have advised the Department of Homeland Security to implement the zero-tolerance policy, White said, “Neither I nor any career person in ORR would ever have supported such a policy proposal. … Separating children from their parents poses a significant risk of traumatic psychological injury to the child.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Alan Gomez, an immigration reporter for USA Today, told KQED the current separation policy “is a very gray area and it’s very hard to understand what’s happening.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Despite the fact that Judge Sabraw — the federal judge who ordered the administration to reunite these families — insisted that a system be left in place to track these children and their guardians, there is no integrated database among Homeland Security, the Department of Health and Human Services and ICE to speak of, Gomez said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There needs to be an integrated system between all of those to track them and while they’ve made some progress on that there is still no unified database that they can point to,” Gomez said. “…We’ve heard a lot of the committee members really get enraged over that and that’s one part where I could see Congress you know both parties stepping in to say, ‘We need to legislate this.

The report states that because the Department of Homeland Security continues to provide the Office of Refugee Resettlement with “limited information about the reasons for these separations,” this may impede the ORR’s ability to determine placements and continue to impact the accuracy of data surrounding separated children.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"alignright\">\n\u003ch3>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11722223/toddler-separated-from-family-at-border-is-returned-in-san-francisco\">Toddler Separated From Family at Border Reunited with Mom in San Francisco\u003c/a>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cfigure>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11722223/toddler-separated-from-family-at-border-is-returned-in-san-francisco\">\u003cimg decoding=\"async\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/01/Sindy_Ortiz_Flores_reunion_013019-1020x765.jpg\" alt=\"\">\u003c/a>\u003c/figure>\n\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>Currently, the exact number of children separated from a parent or guardian by immigration authorities is unknown, but according to the Department of Health and Human Services in June, there were more than 2,700 children in its care. Thousands more children may have been separated during an influx that began in 2017 prior to the accounting required by the court however, the report continued.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There are at least 200 children that have been taken since the judge issued the ban and while there are a handful of cases marked by criminal history, the criteria the Department of Homeland Security is using to \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11711704/after-eight-month-separation-an-salvadoran-asylum-seeker-reconnects-with-4-year-old-son\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">justify these separations\u003c/a> is unclear.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The continued family separations are functioning in a legal loophole which allows for exceptions when immigration officials believe a parent poses a danger to a child, a policy that previous administrations have sometimes also used to separate children from their families for their protection. But as the House oversight committee learned, federal law doesn’t define what makes a parent a threat.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There is nothing in law which either precludes arbitrary separation or defines the terms for separations,” said Commander Jonathan White, who used to help run the agency responsible for immigrant children in government care and now works at the U.S. Public Health Service. “Neither is there anything in law that gives us the authority to say that child is not separated after all and refuse a placement.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>During his testimony, White urged members of the House Committee on Energy and Commerce to pass a law clarifying under what circumstances it’s acceptable to take a child away from a parent. Advocates who testified explained that in some of the recent separations, parents were deemed unfit due to immigration violations or “other reasons,” underscoring White’s concern about the policy’s gray area.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"alignright\">\n\u003ch3>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11721246/san-francisco-therapists-help-migrant-families-cope-with-trauma\">San Francisco Therapists Help Migrant Families Cope With Trauma\u003c/a>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cfigure>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11721246/san-francisco-therapists-help-migrant-families-cope-with-trauma\">\u003cimg decoding=\"async\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/01/RS34846_IMG_9423-qut-1020x652.jpg\" alt=\"\">\u003c/a>\u003c/figure>\n\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>When asked if he would have advised the Department of Homeland Security to implement the zero-tolerance policy, White said, “Neither I nor any career person in ORR would ever have supported such a policy proposal. … Separating children from their parents poses a significant risk of traumatic psychological injury to the child.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Alan Gomez, an immigration reporter for USA Today, told KQED the current separation policy “is a very gray area and it’s very hard to understand what’s happening.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Despite the fact that Judge Sabraw — the federal judge who ordered the administration to reunite these families — insisted that a system be left in place to track these children and their guardians, there is no integrated database among Homeland Security, the Department of Health and Human Services and ICE to speak of, Gomez said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

That’s the date U.S. District Judge Dana Sabraw \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11677646/judge-bars-migrant-family-separations-orders-return-of-children-within-30-days\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">issued an injunction to stop family separations\u003c/a> and ordered the government to promptly reunite children with their parents. \u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignright\">'The Trump administration’s response is a shocking concession that it can't easily find thousands of children it ripped from parents, and doesn't even think it's worth the time to locate each of them.'\u003ccite>ACLU attorney Lee Gelernt\u003c/cite>\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>Sabraw’s order came in a class action lawsuit — Ms. L vs. U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement — which challenged the Trump administration over family separation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>White said in his declaration that the total number of children his agency was responsible for returning to their families is 2,816. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s an increase over previous tallies. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In July 2018, ORR reported that there were 2,654 affected children. Officials later revised the number to 2,737. The vast majority of those children have since been released to their parents or another close relative.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But last month, the inspector general for HHS \u003ca href=\"https://www.oig.hhs.gov/newsroom/news-releases/2019/uac.asp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">issued a watchdog report\u003c/a>, which found that thousands of additional children may have been taken from their parents at the border beginning in 2017, \"before the accounting required by the court.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"alignright\">\n\u003ch3>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11721246/san-francisco-therapists-help-migrant-families-cope-with-trauma\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">San Francisco Therapists Help Migrant Families Cope With Trauma\u003c/a>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cfigure>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11721246/san-francisco-therapists-help-migrant-families-cope-with-trauma\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/01/RS34846_IMG_9423-qut-1020x652.jpg\" alt=\"\">\u003c/a>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Two California psychotherapists travel to Texas to aid families released from ICE detention at a Greyhound bus station.\u003cbr>\n\u003c/p>\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>Sabraw asked the government to respond to the inspector general’s report, which states, \"Public attention has focused largely on children separated from their parents who are covered by a widely reported federal court order. But, more children, over a longer period of time, have been separated from their parents or guardians and referred to the Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR) for care.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Attorneys with the American Civil Liberties Union, which is representing plaintiff parents in the Ms. L case, say the government should be held accountable for the earlier separations — and ensure that all those children are also returned to their parents.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We believe that even if the family were separated and the children were released from U.S. custody before June 26, those families should be included,” said Lee Gelernt, the lead attorney in the case. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What we suspect is that many parents believed that the only way to get their child out of government custody was to agree to allow the child to be sent to a foster family or some other sponsor ... And we have no idea if those parents have now gotten their children back or not.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But in his declaration, White said it was unfeasible to try to account for children who had been separated from parents and then released by ORR prior to the June injunction.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"alignright\">\n\u003ch3>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11717702/thousands-of-immigrants-in-court-limbo-due-to-government-shutdown\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Thousands of Immigrants in Court Limbo Due to Government Shutdown\u003c/a>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cfigure>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11717702/thousands-of-immigrants-in-court-limbo-due-to-government-shutdown\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/01/GettyImages-923834000-e1547510905103-1020x680.jpg\" alt=\"\">\u003c/a>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>People who had waited two years or longer to see an immigration judge could now see their cases pushed to the back of the line.\u003cbr>\n\u003c/p>\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>“HHS has no statutory authority over discharged children, much less routine contact with all of them,” he wrote. “ORR grantees would face significant hurdles if they tried to collect information from separated children who were discharged before June 26, 2018.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>White said that over the past year and a half, close to 90 percent of unaccompanied or separated children released from ORR were placed with a parent or close relative. So he reasoned that any children separated in 2017 were most likely with their families now.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even if it were possible to locate previously separated children, White stated that HHS lacks the authority to take a child back from a sponsor in order to reunite the child with their parent. White, a social worker, warned that doing so would “destabilize” the child’s environment and could be traumatic to the children.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The option more consistent with the best interest of the child,” he asserted, “would be to allow the child to remain with their sponsor and focus instead on the ongoing work of reunifying parents with separated children presently in ORR care.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The ACLU’s Gelernt called that answer horrific.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It can't be that we can't account for thousands of children who were separated just because it may be too much work,\" Gelernt said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The Trump administration’s response is a shocking concession that it can't easily find thousands of children it ripped from parents, and doesn't even think it's worth the time to locate each of them.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gelernt has asked Judge Sabraw to include any child taken from a parent since 2017 in the Ms. L. case.

That’s the date U.S. District Judge Dana Sabraw \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11677646/judge-bars-migrant-family-separations-orders-return-of-children-within-30-days\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">issued an injunction to stop family separations\u003c/a> and ordered the government to promptly reunite children with their parents. \u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignright\">'The Trump administration’s response is a shocking concession that it can't easily find thousands of children it ripped from parents, and doesn't even think it's worth the time to locate each of them.'\u003ccite>ACLU attorney Lee Gelernt\u003c/cite>\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>Sabraw’s order came in a class action lawsuit — Ms. L vs. U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement — which challenged the Trump administration over family separation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>White said in his declaration that the total number of children his agency was responsible for returning to their families is 2,816. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s an increase over previous tallies. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In July 2018, ORR reported that there were 2,654 affected children. Officials later revised the number to 2,737. The vast majority of those children have since been released to their parents or another close relative.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But last month, the inspector general for HHS \u003ca href=\"https://www.oig.hhs.gov/newsroom/news-releases/2019/uac.asp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">issued a watchdog report\u003c/a>, which found that thousands of additional children may have been taken from their parents at the border beginning in 2017, \"before the accounting required by the court.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"alignright\">\n\u003ch3>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11721246/san-francisco-therapists-help-migrant-families-cope-with-trauma\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">San Francisco Therapists Help Migrant Families Cope With Trauma\u003c/a>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cfigure>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11721246/san-francisco-therapists-help-migrant-families-cope-with-trauma\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/01/RS34846_IMG_9423-qut-1020x652.jpg\" alt=\"\">\u003c/a>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Two California psychotherapists travel to Texas to aid families released from ICE detention at a Greyhound bus station.\u003cbr>\n\u003c/p>\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>Sabraw asked the government to respond to the inspector general’s report, which states, \"Public attention has focused largely on children separated from their parents who are covered by a widely reported federal court order. But, more children, over a longer period of time, have been separated from their parents or guardians and referred to the Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR) for care.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Attorneys with the American Civil Liberties Union, which is representing plaintiff parents in the Ms. L case, say the government should be held accountable for the earlier separations — and ensure that all those children are also returned to their parents.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We believe that even if the family were separated and the children were released from U.S. custody before June 26, those families should be included,” said Lee Gelernt, the lead attorney in the case. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What we suspect is that many parents believed that the only way to get their child out of government custody was to agree to allow the child to be sent to a foster family or some other sponsor ... And we have no idea if those parents have now gotten their children back or not.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But in his declaration, White said it was unfeasible to try to account for children who had been separated from parents and then released by ORR prior to the June injunction.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"alignright\">\n\u003ch3>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11717702/thousands-of-immigrants-in-court-limbo-due-to-government-shutdown\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Thousands of Immigrants in Court Limbo Due to Government Shutdown\u003c/a>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cfigure>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11717702/thousands-of-immigrants-in-court-limbo-due-to-government-shutdown\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/01/GettyImages-923834000-e1547510905103-1020x680.jpg\" alt=\"\">\u003c/a>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>People who had waited two years or longer to see an immigration judge could now see their cases pushed to the back of the line.\u003cbr>\n\u003c/p>\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>“HHS has no statutory authority over discharged children, much less routine contact with all of them,” he wrote. “ORR grantees would face significant hurdles if they tried to collect information from separated children who were discharged before June 26, 2018.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>White said that over the past year and a half, close to 90 percent of unaccompanied or separated children released from ORR were placed with a parent or close relative. So he reasoned that any children separated in 2017 were most likely with their families now.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even if it were possible to locate previously separated children, White stated that HHS lacks the authority to take a child back from a sponsor in order to reunite the child with their parent. White, a social worker, warned that doing so would “destabilize” the child’s environment and could be traumatic to the children.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The option more consistent with the best interest of the child,” he asserted, “would be to allow the child to remain with their sponsor and focus instead on the ongoing work of reunifying parents with separated children presently in ORR care.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The ACLU’s Gelernt called that answer horrific.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It can't be that we can't account for thousands of children who were separated just because it may be too much work,\" Gelernt said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The Trump administration’s response is a shocking concession that it can't easily find thousands of children it ripped from parents, and doesn't even think it's worth the time to locate each of them.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gelernt has asked Judge Sabraw to include any child taken from a parent since 2017 in the Ms. L. case. The court is expected to hear that motion later this month.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

"info": "The MindShift podcast explores the innovations in education that are shaping how kids learn. Hosts Ki Sung and Katrina Schwartz introduce listeners to educators, researchers, parents and students who are developing effective ways to improve how kids learn. We cover topics like how fed-up administrators are developing surprising tactics to deal with classroom disruptions; how listening to podcasts are helping kids develop reading skills; the consequences of overparenting; and why interdisciplinary learning can engage students on all ends of the traditional achievement spectrum. This podcast is part of the MindShift education site, a division of KQED News. KQED is an NPR/PBS member station based in San Francisco.
