The U.S. won't pay immigrant families separated at the Mexico border during the Trump administration, President Biden said, casting doubt on Justice Department talks to settle families' legal claims
WASHINGTON—President Biden said the U.S. wasn’t going to pay immigrant families who were separated at the Mexico border during the Trump administration, throwing into doubt settlements the Justice Department has been negotiating to resolve legal claims by the families.
The White House referred questions about the president’s remarks to the Justice Department, which said it “will not comment on ongoing litigation.” About 940 claims have been filed so far by families that were separated, and government officials aren’t sure how many more will come forward or prove eligible under the potential settlement.SUBSCRIBE
