Biden to Stop holding Undocumented Families in Detention Centers; WH to Stop Holding Migrant Families at Border, will Use Ankle Bracelets Instead Before Releasing Them Into the U.S.

Biden to stop holding undocumented families in detention centers:

The Biden administration is ending the practice of holding undocumented migrant families in detention centers, turning to remote tracking technology such as ankle bracelets as alternatives.

Driving the news: As of Friday, the U.S. had zero migrant families in detention facilities, according to internal government data obtained by Axios — with the last and largest facility used for the practice now being slated to hold only single adults.

  • More than 100 migrant family members were removed or released from the South Texas Family Residential Center in Dilley, Texas, between Thursday and Friday of last week. 
  • That brought the total detained family population to zero, according to the internal data. 
  • “ICE has chosen to shift its usage of the Dilley facility to focus on single adults,” an ICE spokesperson confirmed to Axios, “consistent with the administration’s goals of addressing irregular migration while supporting a system of border management that is orderly, safe and humane.”

WH to stop holding migrant families at border, will use ankle bracelets instead: report

The Biden administration will no longer hold illegal immigrant families in detention centers at the border, opting instead to use electronic tracking technology like ankle bracelets to monitor them after they are released into the US, according to a report.

There were no migrant families in Immigration and Customs Enforcement detention centers as of the end of last week, Axios reported, citing internal government data.

The report added that the last 100 migrant families in custody were removed or released from the South Texas Family Residential Center in Dilley Dec. 9 and 10.

“ICE has chosen to shift its usage of the Dilley facility to focus on single adults consistent with the administration’s goals of addressing irregular migration while supporting a system of border management that is orderly, safe and humane,” an ICE spokesperson ​told the outlet.

Two other smaller facilities designed for families — the Karnes County Staging Center in Texas and the Berks Family Staging Center in Pennsylvania — are also no longer housing families. —>READ MORE HERE
