Speaker Ryan: We Don't Want Kids to be Separated from Their Parents

House Speaker Paul Ryan says he's not comfortable with the Trump administration's zero tolerance policy that separates children from parents who cross the U.S.-Mexico border illegally. He says the issue needs to be addressed by Congress in immigration legislation. "We don't want kids to be separated from their parents," the speaker says. Over one thousand minors are currently being housed in detention facilities in Texas being run by the Health and Human Services Department while their parents face prosecution for entering the country illegally. close
