| FALSE | Claim by Mike Pence (R): “The family separation policy actually began under the Obama administration.”
PolitiFact rating: False (The Obama administration did not have a policy to separate families arriving illegally at the border. Family separations rarely happened under the Obama administration, which sought to keep families together in detention. Separations under Trump occurred systematically as a result of his administration’s policy to prosecute all adults crossing the border illegally. After mounting public pressure and criticism, Trump signed an executive order to stop separating families.) Mike Pence repeats false claim that Barack Obama started migrant family separations |
