LOADING ERROR LOADINGA newly uncovered document flagged last week in a federal court filing threatens undocumented immigrant children in government custody with “prolonged” detention if they choose to exercise their legal rights rather than voluntarily depart the United States. The document misrepresents the law and threatens to undermine immigrant children’s legal rights to pursue immigration cases in the United States, according to the attorney who flagged it as part of a federal lawsuit. It’s unclear how widely the document has been distributed or, indeed, whether any children have directly been given the information it contains. The challenge concerns the administration’s recent practice of turning 18-year-olds over to ICE custody once they age out of the government’s network of shelters for unaccompanied immigrant youth. If your sponsor in the United States does not have legal immigration status, they will be subject to arrest and removal from the United States.

President Donald Trump's administration moved Wednesday to roll back protections for imperiled species and the places they live. Other pending proposals from the administration would revise the definition of “harm” under the Endangered Species Act and potentially bypass species protections for logging projects in national forests and on public lands. Trump officials during his first term also rolled back protections for individual species including the northern spotted owl and gray wolf. The Endangered Species Act protects more than 1,600 species in the United States and its territories.
