NATION/WORLD East Oregonian Page 6A Thursday, June 21, 2018 In reversal, Trump signs order stop to family separation rule Associated Press WASHINGTON — Bowing to pressure from anxious allies, President Donald Trump abruptly reversed himself Wednes- day and signed an executive order halting his adminis- tration’s policy of separat- ing children from their par- ents when they are detained illegally crossing the U.S. border. It was a dramatic turn- around for Trump, who has been insisting, wrongly, that his administration had no choice but to separate fam- ilies apprehended at the bor- der because of federal law and a court decision. The order does not end the “zero-tolerance” pol- icy that criminally prose- cutes all adults caught cross- ing the border illegally. But, at least for the next few weeks, it would keep fami- lies together while they are in custody, expedite their cases and ask the Defense Department to help house them. It also doesn’t change anything yet for the some 2,300 children taken from their families since the pol- icy was put into place. The news in recent days has been dominated by sear- ing images of children held in cages at border facilities, as well as audio recordings of young children crying for their parents — images that have sparked fury, questions of morality and concern from Republicans about a negative impact on their races in November’s mid- term elections. Until Wednesday, the president, Homeland Secu- rity Secretary Kirstjen Niel- sen and other officials had repeatedly argued the only way to end the practice was for Congress to pass new legislation, while Democrats AP Photo/Evan Vucci President Donald Trump listens during a meeting with Republican members of Congress on immigra- tion in the Cabinet Room of the White House. House struggles to unite behind bills to stem border crisis Associated Press AP Photo/Pablo Martinez Monsivais President Donald Trump signs an executive order to keep families together at the border, but says that the ‘zero-tolerance’ prosecution policy will continue, during an event in the Oval Office of the White House in Washington on Wednesday. Standing behind Trump are Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen, left, and Vice Pres- ident Mike Pence. said Trump could do it with his signature alone. That’s just what he did. “We’re going to have strong, very strong bor- ders, but we’re going to keep the families together,” said Trump, who added that he didn’t like the “sight” or “feeling” of children sepa- rated from their parents. Under a previous class-action settlement that set policies for the treat- ment and release of minors caught at the border, fam- ilies can only be detained for 20 days. A senior Justice Department official said that hasn’t changed. “This is a stopgap mea- sure,” said Gene Hamilton, counsel to the attorney gen- eral. Justice lawyers were planning to file a challenge to the agreement, known as the Flores settlement, ask- ing that a judge allow for the detention of families until criminal and removal pro- ceedings are completed. So Trump’s order is likely to create a fresh set of problems and may well spark a new court fight. It’s unclear what happens if no changes to law or the settle- ment take place by the time families reach the detain- ment deadline. The language also leaves room to separate children from parents if it’s best for the child’s welfare. And it didn’t do much for the teeming outrage over the issue. The Alabama-based Southern Poverty Law Cen- ter said the order didn’t go nearly far enough. “The administration still plans to criminalize families — including children — by holding them in prison-like detention facilities. There are workable alternatives,” president Richard Cohen said in a statement. It’s also unclear what will happen to the children already separated. Health and Human Services Sec- retary Alex Azar said his department will start reunit- ing detained immigrant chil- dren with their parents — but he made no specific commitment on how quickly that can be accomplished. And officials said the cases of the children already sep- arated and turned over to their custody would proceed as usual. Trump’s family appar- ently played a role in his turnaround. A White House offi- cial said first lady Melania Trump had been making her opinion known to the presi- dent for some time that she felt he needed to do all he could to help families stay together, whether by work- ing with Congress or acting on his own. WASHINGTON (AP) — Speaker Paul Ryan is pushing ahead with votes on rival House GOP immi- gration bills, but neither appears to have enough support for passage, prompting President Don- ald Trump to take execu- tive action Wednesday to stem the crisis of family separations at the border. Trump has said he’s “1,000 percent” behind both GOP bills, but restive House Republicans have all but begged GOP lead- ers for more clarity about what the president would actually sign. Public outcry is mounting over the fam- ily separations, but so far, there’s no clear roadmap for Thursday voting on the emotional issue dividing Republicans. With the immigration bills teetering in the House, the White House launched an eleventh-hour push to try to bring Republicans onboard.

Steve Scal- ise, the GOP whip. Back on Capitol Hill, Home- land Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen was set to meet with a larger group of House Republicans. But congressional action remains uncertain. Facing condemnation of the fam- ily separations from across the political spectrum, the White House took action. Trump on Wednesday signed an executive order drafted by Nielsen that directs her department to keep families together after they are detained crossing the border illegally. “We’re going to have strong, very strong bor- ders, but we’re going to keep the families together,” said Trump, who added he didn’t like the “sight” or “feeling” of children sepa- rated from their parents. More than 2,300 chil- dren were separated from their families at the border from May 5 through June 9, according to DHS. 2:30 3 PM 3:30 4 PM 4:30 7 PM 7:30 Last Last Man St. Man St. News (N) News News (N) (N) News News News News (N) (N) News News News News (N) (N) News News Arthur Business (N) Wild Kratts 7 PM 7:30 6 PM 6:30 7 PM 7:30 8 PM 8:30 9 PM 9:30 10 PM 10:30 11 PM 11:30 Modern Modern Family Family News (N) News Inside (N) Edition News News News Family (N) Feud KGW News (N) News News (N) (N) KATU News (N) PBS NewsHour (N) 2 Broke 2 Broke The Four: Battle for Stardom "Week First at Dateline "The Mike & Girls Girls Three" (N) Ten (N) Player" Molly Feud Feud The Four "Week Three" (N) News (N) News Page Six The Big TheSi- The Big Young Mom Life in S.W.A.T.
