Court Certifies Class Action Against Trump Administration

 
The Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) is suing the Trump administration on behalf of immigrant children who languished in detention centers across the country despite having sponsors waiting to provide homes for them. Alongside its partners at the Legal Aid Justice Center and Sterne, Kessler, Goldstein & Fox PLLC, the SPLC is asking the court to order the prompt release of children to family members and to stop the administration’s policy of sharing the identities of potential sponsors with immigration enforcement officials. Last week, a federal court certified the lawsuit as a class action.
