Trump Administration Seeks to End Child Migrant Protections

Imagine there's a rule called the Flores Agreement that helps protect kids who come to the US without their parents.

This rule says the government can't keep them locked up for too long and must keep them safe.

The Trump administration, however, wants to get rid of this rule.

They tried before, but it didn't work.

Now, they're trying again.

People who care about kids worry this could make things unsafe for them.

The agreement ensures children have access to safe conditions and limits how long they can be held by border patrol.

It also makes sure they are transferred to appropriate shelters.

This disagreement is part of a larger debate about immigration.
