UPDATE (11:47 PM ET 6/26/18): A federal judge grants a nationwide injunction stopping the family separation policy, ordering that the Trump Administration reunite all migrant children taken from their parents. The order mandates that the Trump administration reunite migrant kids under 5 with parents in 14 days, 30 days for kids over 5.

U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions on May 7 announced that the Trump administration would adopt a “zero tolerance” policy toward anyone caught by Border Patrol crossing into country. All migrants would be referred to the Department of Justice and prosecuted for the misdemeanor of illegal entry into the United States.
