Youngest Migrants Sent to ‘Tender Age’ Shelters

“Trump administration officials have been sending babies and other young children forcibly separated from their parents at the U.S.-Mexico border to at least three “tender age” shelters in South Texas,” the AP reports.

“Lawyers and medical providers who have visited the Rio Grande Valley shelters described play rooms of crying preschool-age children in crisis. The government also plans to open a fourth shelter to house hundreds of young migrant children in Houston, where city leaders denounced the move Tuesday.”

The Hill reports that MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow broke down in tears on-air over the report about “tender age” shelters.
