But a later Ninth Circuit ruling extended the 20-day period to children who come as part of illegal alien family groups, too.
Actually that ruling didn't "extend" it. They just said that's the way the law was set up from the get-go. Also that article doesn't really make it clear, but the decree allowed a
maximum of 20 days. After that, the kids had to be shipped out to foster care, thereby "ripping the kids from their parents' arms." You can thank the left-wing ACLU for that little piece of "do-gooding," which has now been the law for over 20 years, eh?
