“The administration is acting as if these are children who are adopted, whose parents gave them up for adoption decades ago and now all of a sudden bringing a parent into their life would destabilize their life,” Lee Gelernt, Deputy Director of the American Civil Liberties Union’s Immigrants Rights Project and its lead attorney on the case, told Jezebel. “We’re talking about children who were forcibly taken from their parents in the last year and the administration is trying to claim that it’s for the child’s own good not to reunite with their parents. That makes no sense and can’t be justified from a child welfare standpoint.”

Trump Admin Says It’s Too Hard To Reunite Thousands Of Separated Families: Court Filing | HuffPost

On Friday, officials from the Trump administration said it would require too much effort to reunite the thousands of families it separated before implementing its “zero-tolerance” policy in April, according to a declaration filed as part of an ongoing lawsuit between the American Civil Liberties Union and U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement. Last month, the inspector general of the Department of Health and Human Services released a report stating that “thousands” more immigrant families had been separated than the government had previously disclosed. In the declaration submitted Friday, HHS officials said they don’t know the exact number of children who were taken from their parents before “zero tolerance” and that finding them would be too much of a “burden” since there was no formal tracking system in place.
