Nine parents who had been deported from the U.S. while their children (and other family members) remained in the country have been returned to the U.S. to be reunited with their children, according to this article from CBS News. "The reunions were made possible through a court ruling issued last September by the federal judge overseeing the case surrounding the separation of migrant families by the Trump administration. Judge Dana Sabraw of the U.S. District Court in San Diego ordered officials to allow 11 migrant parents who were unlawfully deported without their children to come back to the U.S. so they could reunite with their kids and pursue their asylum cases in America."

"I hope we're not the first or the last, because there are many parents who also have their children here," said one father.
