AFFORDING CONGRESS AN OPPORTUNITY TO ADDRESS FAMILY SEPARATION
By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, including the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA), 8 U.S.C. 1101 et seq., it is hereby ordered as follows:
Section 1. Policy. It is the policy of this Administration to rigorously enforce our immigration laws. Under our laws, the only legal way for an alien to enter this country is at a designated port of entry at an appropriate time. When an alien enters or attempts to enter the country anywhere else, that alien has committed at least the crime of improper entry and is subject to a fine or imprisonment under section 1325(a) of title 8, United States Code. This Administration will initiate proceedings to enforce this and other criminal provisions of the INA until and unless Congress directs otherwise. It is also the policy of this Administration to maintain family unity, including by detaining alien families together where appropriate and consistent with law and available resources. It is unfortunate that Congress’s failure to act and court orders have put the Administration in the position of separating alien families to effectively enforce the law.
Sec. 2. Definitions. For purposes of this order, the following definitions apply:
(a) “Alien family” means
(i) any person not a citizen or national of the United States who has not been admitted into, or is not authorized to enter or remain in, the United States, who entered this country with an alien child or alien children at or between designated ports of entry and who was detained; and
(ii) that person’s alien child or alien children.
(b) “Alien child” means any person not a citizen or national of the United States who
(i) has not been admitted into, or is not authorized to enter or remain in, the United States;
(ii) is under the age of 18; and
(iii) has a legal parent-child relationship to an alien who entered the United States with the alien child at or between designated ports of entry and who was detained.
Sec. 3. Temporary Detention Policy for Families Entering this Country Illegally. (a) The Secretary of Homeland Security (Secretary), shall, to the extent permitted by law and subject to the availability of appropriations, maintain custody of alien families during the pendency of any criminal improper entry or immigration proceedings involving their members.
(b) The Secretary shall not, however, detain an alien family together when there is a concern that detention of an alien child with the child’s alien parent would pose a risk to the child’s welfare.
(c) The Secretary of Defense shall take all legally available measures to provide to the Secretary, upon request, any existing facilities available for the housing and care of alien families, and shall construct such facilities if necessary and consistent with law. The Secretary, to the extent permitted by law, shall be responsible for reimbursement for the use of these facilities.
(d) Heads of executive departments and agencies shall, to the extent consistent with law, make available to the Secretary, for the housing and care of alien families pending court proceedings for improper entry, any facilities that are appropriate for such purposes. The Secretary, to the extent permitted by law, shall be responsible for reimbursement for the use of these facilities.
(e) The Attorney General shall promptly file a request with the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California to modify the Settlement Agreement in Flores v. Sessions, CV 85-4544 (“Flores settlement”), in a manner that would permit the Secretary, under present resource constraints, to detain alien families together throughout the pendency of criminal proceedings for improper entry or any removal or other immigration proceedings.
Sec. 4. Prioritization of Immigration Proceedings Involving Alien Families. The Attorney General shall, to the extent practicable, prioritize the adjudication of cases involving detained families.
Sec. 5. General Provisions. (a) Nothing in this order shall be construed to impair or otherwise affect:
(i) the authority granted by law to an executive department or agency, or the head thereof; or
(ii) the functions of the Director of the Office of Management and Budget relating to budgetary, administrative, or legislative proposals.
(b) This order shall be implemented in a manner consistent with applicable law and subject to the availability of appropriations.
(c) This order is not intended to, and does not, create any right or benefit, substantive or procedural, enforceable at law or in equity by any party against the United States, its departments, agencies, or entities, its officers, employees, or agents, or any other person.

E quanto a número de refugiados, estamos assim

Expresso diário, 19.06.2018: 16,2 milhões no ano de 2017.
Mas atenção: «Segundo o relatório da agência da ONU, os números desmentem a perceção errada de que a crise dos refugiados afetou mais os países desenvolvidos. Na realidade, 85% dos refugiados encontram-se em países em desenvolvimento, muitos deles “desesperadamente pobres”, alerta o documento.»

«O OE para 2019 vai inspirar-se em Fred Astaire. Vai ser um número de sapateado único. Pena não estarmos em Hollywood, para que isso se torne um filme para audiências globais. E seja só uma comédia triste apenas visível nos estúdios de São Bento. E, fora, numas greves que se vão suceder para que se pense que algo vai mudar com isso. Este vai ser o Orçamento Fred Astaire ou, como se dizia no tempo dos meus pais, "Fred às tiras". Vai ser um OE de todas as conciliações, seguindo os ensinamentos do dançarino: "No meu trabalho visto-me para o papel. Em casa, visto-me para mim próprio." Aqui todos se vão aperaltar para a imagem que querem dar antes das eleições: o PS, de sentido de Estado, o PCP e o BE de militantes dos seus grupos eleitorais, o PSD e o CDS de críticos por necessidade. O OE em Portugal é o bolo dos noivos e de todos os que se fazem convidados para as suas fatias. Sempre foi. Ele é a fonte de todas as felicidades. Especialmente quando a sempre esmagadora carga fiscal que acorrenta os portugueses tem espaço para ter mãos largas. Neste tempo, entre a austeridade para a maioria e o dinheiro para quem se move bem, o OE é de conciliação possível.
Não era o que deveria ser. O OE deveria ser como Fred Astaire, ou as personagens que interpretou: devia representar o português ideal, ambicioso, tenaz, que dava aos cidadãos uma razão para acreditar que não deviam estar contentes com a sua situação e que deveriam lutar para que tudo mudasse. O problema é que cada OE que surge traz-nos a sensação de que vamos num comboio que deixou de ter via férrea por baixo e que continuamos a balançar-nos para termos a sensação de que continuamos a mover-nos. As eleições vão ser no próximo ano. E todos os partidos vão ter de arranjar, neste OE, um crédito, positivo ou negativo, para convencerem os eleitores e sacudirem a sua apatia. Vai ser negociado às tiras. Para cada sabor. Fred Astaire haveria de fazer um sapateado em sua honra.»
