Health Protections for Migrant Children in Custody Are Set to Expire

Marsha Griffin stated, 'This is not a bureaucratic shift... This is a law enforcement agency with a law enforcement mentality, tasked with running a trauma-informed day care center.'

A Custom and Border Protection spokesperson noted that extensive measures have been taken to improve the situation, yet many remain skeptical of these claims amidst impending changes.
