NewzThe Trump administration is establishing a team of government-employed attorneys to represent unaccompanied minors during U.S. immigration proceedings. This initiative shifts the legal representation of these children from independent counsel to government staff.

Critics suggest that utilizing government-employed lawyers could potentially place the children at greater risk during their legal cases.
