BREAKING: Lawyers say they can't find the parents of 545 migrant children separated by the Trump administration. With @JuliaEAinsley. nbcnews.com/politics/immig…
"People ask when we will find all of these families and, sadly, I can’t give an answer... will not stop looking until we have found every one... tragic reality is that hundreds of parents were deported to Central America without their children, who remain here,” said @leegelernt.
Most of these parents, if ever found, will face insurmountable hurdles to reunification with their children in the United States.
Learn more about efforts to track down the unreachable parents here, from @MichelleEWiley and @adrianamorgao.

My colleague @ahylton26 also reported on the effort to track down and reunite the "unreachables" in this extraordinary @VICE documentary. Please watch if you can.
Remember: the government knew that many of these children were so young they would struggle to find their parents after separations, but Trump moved forward with the policy anyway. nbcnews.com/politics/immig…
Monday I heard what three years of being separated sounds like. This son was taken from dad by Trump admin at age six. He’s now living with relatives in CA. Dad was deported to Honduras without him. @AlOtroLado_Org trying to bring his dad back to reunite.
