The Department of Homeland Security has stopped referring illegal immigrant adults for prosecution when they arrive with their families, the Commissioner of U.S. Customs and Border protection confirmed Monday.
“In accordance of the executive order, I diverted the temporary suspension of prosecution for families in that category while we work through a process with DOJ while we can maintain family unity while empowering protection efforts,” said U.S. Customs and Border Protection Commissioner Kevin McAleenan.
