EXCLUSIVE: Biden admin may bring whole families to U.S. to reunite with separated children, not just parents. Task force is working on a process where “immediate family members," like siblings and stepparents, "can also apply." With @JuliaEAinsley. nbcnews.com/politics/immig…
In an exclusive interview with NBC News, Mayorkas said, “We are very much focused on providing stability to the reunited families, and not just for her but for the family as a unit,” referring to a mother who had just been reunited with her son. nbcnews.com/politics/immig…
.@MichelleBrane, ED of the task force to reunify families, said her group is working on a process where “immediate family members can also apply. That includes siblings, another, you know the partner or spouse, other parents if they're in the picture.” nbcnews.com/politics/immig…
Mayorkas also sharply defended his decision not to launch an investigation of Trump administration officials — at least at this time — for their role in the family separation policy. “I think that question is before its time.” nbcnews.com/politics/immig…
Brané said her group has identified parents and children who were separated, but whose separations were unknown to the government because of poorly kept records. "We are finding evidence of separations," Brané said. nbcnews.com/politics/immig…
