Lindsey Graham prepping legislative package to change asylum laws washex.am/2XeZrEH
In addition to altering the asylum laws, Graham raised issues with the 1997 Flores settlement, which prohibits the federal government from holding children in family detention centers for more than 20 days.
He also cited a “cork” in a federal trafficking law that prohibits immigration authorities from sending migrant children back to non-contiguous countries.
“So the only place that we can send a child back is to Mexico and Canada,” Graham said. “We need to be sending these kids back to Central America where they come from.”
But Dems would rather see kids in ‘cages.’ Why? Because they don’t care about the kids.
