President Biden Dismisses $450K Payments To Migrant Families

President Biden addressed questions about the US paying families separated at the southern border, with reports suggesting $450,000 per person as part of a settlement with the Justice Department. The Wall Street Journal reported that families separated under Trump's immigration policy could receive up to $1,000,000. Biden's comments have cast doubt on these settlements, while the DOJ continues negotiations with affected families.
