Immigration judge says Trump administration's firings and policies are 'disheartening'

from PBS News Hour - Segments · host PBS News

The Trump administration has fired more immigration judges as it moves to reshape the court system that polices deportations. Immigration courts are overseen by the Department of Justice itself. That means judges are required to answer to the administration whose policies they're ruling on. Ali Rogin spoke with Holly D'Andrea, president of the National Association of Immigration Judges.
