San Diego is making efforts to reunite families amid the tragic #bordercrisis.

On Tuesday, a San Diego judge gave U.S. border authorities 30 days to reunite separated families. However, if the child is under the age of 5 they must be taken back to their parents within 14 days, according to the court order filed by U.S. District Judge Dana Sabraw.

In addition, Sabraw has issued a nationwide injunction on future family separations, unless the parent is seen as irresponsible or unfit to take care of the child. The order also requires that authorities give parents and children phone contact within 10 days.

The border crisis has led to more than 2,000 kids being separated from their parents in just the last few weeks. Migrant children were kept in contracted shelters built like cages, fed small portions of food and given mats to sleep on.

“The administration’s practice of separating families is cruel, plain and simple,” New Jersey Attorney General Gurbir Grewal said in a statement. “Every day, it seems like the administration is issuing new, contradictory policies and relying on new, contradictory justifications. But we can’t forget: The lives of real people hang in the balance.”

This is all is the works of a Trump administration policy that worked towards families being caught illegally in the U.S. Last week, following an international backlash, Trump ended the separation of families and said families and children will be detained together.
