Report: ICE Causing ‘Family Separations’ By Deporting Immigrants Without Their Children

A new report accuses US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) of family separation for deporting migrants to Honduras without their children.

Two nonprofits that recently traveled to Honduras say migrants who are being deported there are arriving without their children, and migrants claim they don’t know where their children are.

The Women’s Refugee Commission and Physicians for Human Rights claim that over half of the newly-arrived migrants they spoke with in Honduras said they were not given the option of bringing their children with them.
