Washington (CNN) Attorneys are still trying to reach the parents of 303 migrant children who were separated at the US-Mexico border under the Trump administration, down from 337 in August, according to a federal court filing Wednesday. Since August, the parents of 34 of those children whose whereabouts had been previously unknown have been found, according to Wednesday's filing. The Biden administration has committed to helping reunite families as part of a family reunification task force. Officials have said they're combing through thousands of records to determine how many families remain separated. Since the creation of the task force, 50 children have been reunified with their parents in the United States, according to the filing.
