A new policy, to be implemented in 60 days, will not limit how long children or their families can be detained.expectations that they will be released after being arrested by the US border authorities and able to disappear into the US population., and stop this illegal flow, we must close these loopholes. This is an urgent humanitarian necessity," Trump said in a statement.

"Human smugglers advertise, and intending migrants know well, that even if they cross the border illegally, arriving at our border with a child has meant that they will be released into the United States to wait for court proceedings that could take 5 years or more."The Flores rule was the result of a lawsuit citing chronic abuse of migrants in detention.

McAleenan said that in the 10 months to July, some 475,000 people in family units crossed the border illegally from Mexico, aiming to stay in the United States.
