Join with Senator Merkley! Demand oversight of ICE! Demand inspections of detention facilities! Demand this separation atrocity stops! Demand no more of Sessions #ZeroHumanity Policy!
Congress has a moral obligation to take a stand and say that families should not be separated. Many of these families are fleeing terrible violence, traveling thousands of miles on foot to file an asylum claim and save their lives. To traumatize them further is unconscionable.

@SpeakerRyan@SenateMajLdr@SenSchumer @NancyPelosi if you ever wondered what you would have done when they placed Japanese Americans in concentration camps, now is that time to find your courage be heroic or cower in fear. -
My husband's parents were interned during WW11. They never spoke of the pain in losing everything they knew. Can you imagine the horror of them being ripped from their parents on top of that? I am embarrassed and shamed by this policy.

The thing I don't understand is they have an American Consulate in the South American. These families can apply for Asylum in their countries, but it's not Asylum there seeking they want a free ride that's why they do not bring documents. Or their trafficking children.

The psychological trauma to the families is horrific & inhumane. The children will have long lasting psychological affects that may interfere w/basic daily living skills. To know that we, Americans, are causing that trauma to children is counterintuitive to who who we are.

Thanks! Your words are very true. Some people forget that at some point, their family also started out as immigrants.
