Government Awards Controversial Migrant Kids Contract | Roanoke News

Published 1 week, 1 day ago
Description

The government just awarded a $150 million contract to a Texas law firm with minimal immigration experience, sparking alarm among legal advocates who fear vulnerable migrant children could be left without proper representation. The Burke Law Group, known more for corporate work and ties to the administration, will begin services August 15th under a controversial “single source” agreement that bypassed competitive bidding. Critics warn this move could jeopardize due process and make kids easier targets for deportation as deportations ramp up nationwide.
