President responded to rumored plan to bring back “zero tolerance” prosecutions that separated thousands of children from their parents.
President Trump denied Tuesday that his administration is preparing to once more separate migrant families in response to the surge in border crossings, telling reporters that he had ordered an end to a policy established under President Obama.
Under Obama, the separation of parents from their children at the border occurred on a far more limited basis than what the White House attempted last year. Asked directly if he is planning to separate families again, the President said no. But defended the effectiveness of the tactic as a deterrent to migration.
“We’re not looking to do that, now,” Trump said, adding that it brings “a lot more people to the border when you don’t do it.”
