Children in Border Protection custody will be reunited with families, official says

Customs and Border Protection expects all unaccompanied children in its custody to be reunited with their parents Friday, an administration official said.

“CBP expects that all unaccompanied children in their custody who were separated from adults who were being prosecuted will have been reunited with their families,” the official said Friday.

An important note: These would be children separated mostly within the last 72 hours who were never transferred out of CBP custody when President Trump's executive order came down this week.

Some context: These children are not the 2,300 to 3,000 children in the custody of Department of Health and Human Services.
