I will continue to hold @DHSgov and @SecNielsen accountable for the impacts their policies have on the lives of thousands of children and families seeking to come to the US.

As a nurse, I’m concerned about the trauma young children and families are experiencing as a result of DHS separating families at the border. Tearing kids away from their parents is unacceptable, immoral, and just plain wrong.pic.twitter.com/J3OTEGKC5I

@SecNielsen was so evasive, saying the children were separated before they got to the border. Some were. However, she needs to take responsibility for her agency. Evil lurks in evasiveness and vagaries. We all see it, though. -
Also in blaming the parents for "breaking the law" and saying they should come to ports of entry — where they were turned away. She strikes me as very callous and unconcerned.

The American Academy of Pediatrics, the American Academy of Family Physicians, the American Psychiatric Association, and the American Medical Association all condemn the practice of child separation. As a physician , thank you so much for your work today!

You were wonderful in your questioning. As someone who worked all their lives in healthcare it is essential to have especially a nurse’s voice in Congress. Thank you.
