WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The White House said on Friday reports that migrant children were being held on buses for days at a time before being reunited with relatives were outrageous and being investigated.
White House press secretary Jen Psaki said there was no excuse for such a situation.
NBC News reported children who migrated to the United States without their parents are being held on buses in a parking lot in Dallas.
