Border Patrol announces it apprehended more than 132,000 migrants in May—more than 57,000 of them children and more than 11,000 of those traveling without a parent.
The Trump administration on Wednesday said it is “scaling back or discontinuing” paying for activities for the estimated 13,000 undocumented migrant kids living in shelters across the U.S., “including education services, legal services and recreation.”
“We are in a full-blown emergency, and I cannot say this stronger, the system is broken,” Acting CBP Commissioner John Sanders said on a call with reporters Wednesday. The Trump administration has asked Congress for $2.9 billion in emergency funds to care for migrant kids. The federal government has struggled to respond to the influx of migrants. The Homeland Security Department told ABC News last week that some 2,400 minors were waiting at border patrol stations to be picked up by HHS and officials blamed a lack of bed space.
