It was midnight when the calls to ProBAR staff began. Guatemalan children were being pulled from their beds in shelters across the state, rushed onto buses, and driven under the cover of darkness to a small border town airport in Harlingen, Texas. Deep into the Labor Day weekend, the U.S. government had launched a new effort to expeditiously return immigrant children—alone and terrified—back to Guatemala.
Without hesitation, ProBAR attorneys jumped into action, rushing to shelters across the region and to the airport from which the children were expected to depart. Hear firsthand from ProBAR attorneys about what happened and why our work is more important than ever.
