    As the son of a social worker, I know the human trauma that comes with children being separated from their parents. It takes a lasting, and sometimes even irreversible toll on the child’s well being.

        That’s why I’m demanding that Attorney General Sessions halt the practice of family separation at the border immediately as Congress works toward legislative solutions.pic.twitter.com/4Ep86WJfRU

        Thank you! There was a letter brought by your office with over 60+ signatures of concerned Elected Officials in JoCo & WyCo on this matter. Many are willing to work together with you Mr Chairman to ensure children will not be separated from their families.

        You should ask him to vote for a bill that ends this practice. A letter does *nothing*. It may even be just a way to placate you.

        This practice gas been going on through 3 admins. Let's all keep in mind this only occurs when they cross into OUR country illegally. Let's also keep in mind these illegal detainees are getting better care than any young us citizen currently living at or below poverty line.

        Separating children from their parents is not "good care".

        Yes, ask the US criminals who are separated from their families. Illegals are. breaking the law. If they don't want to be separated, come to the US legally.

        Not taken. Secured, fed, educated, doctored, taken better care of than their folks that drug them here illegally. To be rejoined shortly when legal process is complete. Just like here in Florida when parents get arrested, Kids are separated and sent to state DJJ for care.

        Congress is a co-equal branch; they can end this *literally* tomorrow. A letter like this absent action is just a way to virtue signal to voters w/o doing anything. Typical politician.

        We need more than your concern. Direct your attention to this serious issue: Children being separated at the border from migrant families: It’s appalling that the administration‘s policy of separating parents from the kids is an unnecessary and deliberate cruelty. Your Actions?

        Rep. Yoder: As a developmental psychologist, I concur. Thank you for your efforts! Would legislation or the threat of legislation be a stronger incentive for this administration to cease this practice? #KeepingFamiliesTogetherAct #FamiliesBelongTogether
