- Myths v. facts about the Flores settlement prepared by KIND, and a related backgrounder on the Flores settlement prepared by the Women’s Refugee Commission that clarifies how the Flores Settlement agreement (one of the court decisions the administration likes to portray as a 'loophole') was intended to protect children, is not a loophole, and has nothing to do with the administration's family separation policies.
