17 States Sue Trump Over Migrant Family Separation

“Seventeen states, including Washington, New York, California and Illinois, sued President Trump’s administration Tuesday in an effort to force officials to reunite migrant families who have been separated at the U.S.-Mexico border,” the AP reports.

“The states, all of which are led by Democratic attorneys general, joined Washington, D.C., in filing the lawsuit in U.S. District Court in Seattle. It’s the first legal challenge by states over the practice.”
