Advocates seek to block a CBP policy forcing unaccompanied immigrant children to consider self-deportation, citing coercion and violations of court orders.
Legal advocates in McAllen, Texas, filed a motion to halt a U.S. Customs and Border Protection policy that began in September 2025, requiring unaccompanied immigrant children to consider self-deportation before being placed in federal shelters.
The policy, which threatens prolonged detention and future visa bans if children refuse, is alleged to involve coercion, including threats, lack of translation, and denial of medical care.
Attorneys argue it violates a federal injunction blocking the deportation of Guatemalan minors without court review and seek to expand that protection to children from other nations, excluding Mexico and Canada.
The government has two weeks to respond, after which a judge will decide whether to block the policy.
