Trump to Revive Family Detention Centers

Tom Homan, appointed as Donald Trump's 'border czar,' plans to revive family detention centers to expedite deportations, marking a return to previous Trump-era immigration policies. These centers, criticized for their harsh conditions, will involve the construction of new facilities to house families awaiting deportation, with the exact number of beds determined by migration data. Homan asserts that families will have the option to stay together or split, with U.S.-born children possibly remaining in the United States. Critics argue this approach risks harming children and violating human rights. Under the Biden administration, family detentions were ceased in favor of more humane measures like ankle monitors. Homan, however, insists the new plan will maintain American trust by being humane while enforcing immigration laws.
