Trump administration ramps up pressure on indefinite immigrant detention

The Trump administration is seeking to detain three immigrants, arguing that a surge of court cases freeing detainees is straining judicial resources. The 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals is reviewing whether immigrants held for crossing borders illegally have the right to bond hearings, with the administration claiming the current policy violates the constitution. The immigrants, who have no criminal records and U.S. citizen children, were previously released by federal judges in Texas.
