    The nightmare of the Trump administration’s inhumane border policy is still unfolding. Hundreds of children are still being held in detention facilities, wondering: “What about me?” As many as 500 of these children’s parents have already been deported.

        A public health official warned the Trump administration of the harm its family separation policy would cause to these children. It was told of the trauma it would inflict and the lasting psychological damage it would do. The administration went ahead with the policy anyway.

        Reports of abuse linger around some facilities. We’ve heard stories of children being sexually assaulted or forced to take psychotropic drugs. Stories of children being returned to their families sick, beaten or emotionally distressed. This is happening here, on American soil.

        I’m asking you to be the hope these families came for. Keep speaking out. Keep donating to organizations offering them legal aid and counseling. Keep calling Congress to demand accountability. We have to stay by their side, today and for as long as they need us.

        😅😅😅 When will you people wake up. There's video and transcripts all over the place of Sessions announcing the *new* enforcement policy to separate. The past administrations only separated on a limited basis.

        You have been a legislator long before Trump was president. Why didn't you fix this mess with president Obama?

        Instead of complaining, she should work with her fellow legislators and president Trump and fix this mess! That's her job!

        Why is no one being held accountable for this tragedy? Why isn't anyone sitting in jail until all children are reunited with their parents?

        Yes, and you helped! Where’s the voice of Al Franken? Oh Yeah- you helped usher him out- even though it was nonsense by dirty trickster Roger Stone! And what about Gym Jordan? Crickets! Cry me a river Christie!

        Your concern for these still-terrified, isolated & traumatized children is notable, Katherine - it is so deep and sincere, you can’t resist using them to undermine an elected Democrat.

        It did NOT happen with Obama. At that time, it was kids without anyone with them that were showing up, which is a whole other thing. Stop spouting lies.
