US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) has quietly rescinded several internal policies that were designed to protect some of the most vulnerable people in its custody—including pregnant women, infants, the elderly, and people with serious medical conditions. One of the world’s largest law enforcement agencies, CBP is primarily responsible for apprehending and detaining individuals who cross the US border without authorization. The investigation revealed chronic understaffing, improper use of medical record systems, and vague or nonexistent guidance for treating children, pregnant individuals, and others with complex medical needs. “Instead of taking actions to course-correct, the Trump administration rescinded several internal policies aimed at protecting some of the most vulnerable individuals in CBP custody—including pregnant women, children, the elderly, and those with serious medical conditions. We are a nation of values, and these values should be represented in the care of vulnerable people in our government’s custody.”
