WASHINGTON - Federal officials said they were on course to meet Thursday’s court-ordered deadline reuniting all “eligible” immigrant families, but Connecticut lawmakers are wary of the hundreds of “ineligible” parents who’ve already left the country without their children. “Stunningly, federal immigration enforcement officials told many parents that the only way they would get their children back is if they left the country,” said Rep. Rosa DeLauro, D-Conn. “That is outrageous, false and cruel beyond comprehension.” U.S. District Judge Dana Sabraw of San Diego issued a 30-day order to reunite 2,551 immigrant children and parents after a two-month international outcry from churches, public officials and businesses.
