A San Diego federal judge ruled that the Trump administration is breaching a legal settlement designed to aid families separated at the border. U.S. District Judge Dana Sabraw mandated the reinstatement of lapsed contracts with legal and social service providers. He found the government's justification for not renewing these contracts insufficient. The judge emphasized the ongoing obligation to support these families, whose separations inflicted lasting damage. The settlement, stemming from a lawsuit initiated by the American Civil Liberties Union, aims to rectify the consequences of harmful family separation policies.
U.S. District Judge Dana Sabraw on Thursday ordered the federal government again to reinstate lapsed contracts with legal support and social service providers in order to remedy its breach of the settlement agreement.
Sabraw said that the Trump administration's reasons for failing to renew those contracts were unjustified and reinstated obligations must continue regardless.
