Trump administration uses DNA tests to reunite 3,000 migrant children - but says it may miss court deadline

Trump administration uses DNA tests to reunite 3,000 migrant children - but says it may miss court deadlineThe Trump administration is using DNA testing to reunite up to 3,000 migrant children separated from their families by the government’s “zero tolerance” immigration policy, but claims it may miss a court-imposed deadline to do so. Alex Azar, secretary of health and human services, said of the children in his department’s care, about 100 were aged under five. Last month, as the president issued an executive order to halt the separation of families, federal judge Dana Sabraw ordered that children under five years old be reunited with their parents by July 10, and for all children to be reunited by 26 July.
