A $6 million lawsuit was filed in New Jersey federal court Thursday over the prior Trump administration’s 2018 Family Separation Policy that forcibly separated a 3-year-old boy from his parents while he underwent heart surgery.

Takeaway: Since President Donald Trump took office on Monday, his immigration policies have taken center stage. The present lawsuit stems from his first-term policy that separated families at the border, according to a lawsuit filed this week by attorneys with Gibbons, Kirkland & Ellis, and others. Lawsuits over this policy have been relatively rare.
