Nearly two dozen families will soon reunite thanks to the efforts of a group of volunteer lawyers working toward reuniting children and parents who were separated at the border by former President Donald Trump.
Julia Ainsley and Jacob Soboroff of NBC News have reported that “pro bono lawyers tasked by a federal judge with identifying immigrant families separated by the Trump administration have successfully contacted the parents of 23 more children in the past six weeks, according to a report filed in court Wednesday, June 30.”
When these families are reunited, the total number of separated children whose parents have yet to be located will be down to a still-horrifying 368.
