About this episode
Since July, the Trump administration has been sending all pregnant unaccompanied minors apprehended by immigration enforcement to a single group shelter in Texas. Some of the administration's own child welfare officials object to this policy, saying the facility lacks specialized care the girls need. Amna Nawaz spoke with Mark Betancourt, a journalist who spent six months reporting on this story. PBS News is supported by - https://www.pbs.org/newshour/about/funders. Hosted on Acast.
