Key legal resource for immigrant kids to expire with federal contract, advocates say
A federal contract providing legal aid to over 20,000 unaccompanied immigrant children is set to expire, raising concerns about increased deportations. The Trump administration has withheld $65 million in reimbursements from the Acacia Center for Justice, which funds legal services, citing refusal to share sensitive case data.
