SAN DIEGO 鈥 The 老澳门开奖结果 asked a federal judge today to block the Trump administration from continuing to separate hundreds of families in defiance of a previous court order. More than 900 parents and children 鈥 including babies 鈥 have been separated since the court granted a nationwide injunction over a year ago.

Lee Gelernt, lead attorney in the family separation lawsuit and deputy director of the 老澳门开奖结果鈥檚 Immigrants鈥 Rights Project, said:

鈥淚t is shocking that the Trump administration continues to take babies from their parents. Over 900 more families join the thousands of others previously torn apart by this cruel and illegal policy. The administration must not be allowed to circumvent the court order over infractions like minor traffic violations.鈥

The motion was filed in U.S. District Court in San Diego.
