Individuals who cross illegally will no longer be apprehended and simply bused back over the border without charges, as the Border Patrol has done in the past, especially for people without criminal records or prior immigration violations.
- U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions said Monday that the Department of Homeland Security had agreed to refer anyone who enters the United States illegally on the Mexican border to his office for prosecution.
Kirstjen Nielsen, the homeland security secretary, sent the order to border agents on Friday, according to two people familiar with the directive.
In one recent example of how the policy works, a woman who is suspected by the Justice Department of being part of the migrant caravan that was caught in a group north of the border was charged with illegal entry to the United States and separated from the four young children who were with her.
"When respect for the rule of law diminishes, so too does our ability to protect our great nation, its borders and its citizens", Sessions said in a statement. We will bring you that news conference live in the video above via NBC News.

James wants to stay on at Bayern Munich
Bayern Munich's James Rodriguez has said he wants to stay at Bayern Munich after his loan spell from Real Madrid comes to an end. Meanwhile, the club are waiting for an answer from Dutch winger Arjen Robben, having offered him a new deal as well.
Sessions said the USA will put in place a "zero tolerance policy for illegal entry on our southwest border". "We need legality and integrity in our immigration system". Most illegal immigrants come to take jobs or be with their families, and if they are in detention or prison either before or after their attempt to jump the border, they're denied the fruits of their illegal activity and are less likely to make the attempt in the first place, the experts say.
Vice President Mike Pence touring Calexico border wall after migrant caravan arrivesJust last week, President Donald Trump shared his frustration as a caravan of more than 200 migrants from Central America made the trek to Tijuana to escape violence in their home countries. "But we can not take everyone on this planet who is in a hard situation".
On Wednesday, Sessions said he would send 35 United States attorneys as well as 18 immigration judges to the border, to work full time on the asylum cases from caravan migrants he said sought to "overwhelm" and "stampede" it.
The attorney general said he hoped Monday's decision broadcasts a similar message about the Trump administration's aim to crack down on illegal immigration.
