Trump Administration Targets Over 500 Unaccompanied Migrant Children for Expulsion

The Trump administration has identified more than 500 unaccompanied migrant children in U.S. custody for potential expulsion, according to Senator Ron Wyden. This move escalates efforts to address children who have been in custody for over six months without a verified sponsor. Wyden criticized the initiative as a severe institutional failure that jeopardizes vulnerable children by removing them from U.S. protection.

Advocates for migrant rights express concern that returning these children could expose them to the same dangers they fled from.
