ICE was detaining the first group of migrant parents and children in a detention facility in Texas designed to hold families with minors, according to an internal government report obtained by CBS News.

Summary

The Trump administration has resumed detaining migrant families with children, reversing a Biden-era policy.

ICE began holding the first group in Texas facilities repurposed for family detention, as it looks to expand deportation efforts.

Critics, including child welfare advocates, argue detention harms children’s well-being and violates a 2015 court ruling limiting child detention to 20 days.

The move comes as ICE faces Trump’s pressure to increase arrests despite overcrowded detention centers operating at 120% capacity.
