Marc Short, White House Director of Legislative Affairs, defends the administration's 'zero tolerance' policy for illegal border crossings, which has left hundreds of children separated from their parents: "I don’t think it’s so much meant to be a deterrent as it’s really just trying to enforce the law," adding, "We are happy to change the policy once Congress gives us the tools to do it."June 19, 2018
