Progressive in uproar after White House considers detaining migrant families
Fox News
Progressive lawmakers are alarmed by and stand in opposition to reports that President Biden is considering a revival of the Trump-era policy of detaining migrant families to deter illegal immigration.
"We are deeply concerned by reports that the Biden Administration is considering reinstating family detention in an attempt to deter migration. We agree with Secretary Mayorkas when he said, ‘A detention center is not where a family belongs,’" the progressives said. Chris Pandolfo is a writer for Fox News Digital.

"We should not return to the failed policies of the past. There is no safe or humane way to detain families and children, and such detention does not serve as a deterrent to migration. We strongly urge the administration to reject this wrongheaded approach."
