      The conditions I saw today at the border are heartbreaking and enraging. Sick toddlers without beds to sleep on. Muddy kids without access to showers. Facilities without toothbrushes or toothpaste.pic.twitter.com/1wthJCvgWS

      These border facilities are under-resourced, but the suffering inflicted isn’t accidental. It’s part of the Trump administration’s depraved deterrence agenda, to make conditions so miserable that migrants won’t make the journey in the first place.

      The children and families in these facilities are suffering irreparable trauma. As the wealthiest nation on earth, we should not be packing people into what are essentially prison camps. We need to get these vulnerable people out of these camps NOW.

          What specific action can we take? Raising awareness is wonderful but awareness alone won’t help them. What can we DO that will actually make a difference?

          One day will it be like the Holocaust victims? Telling of unimaginable horrors. It is up to our leaders to stand against this treatment . We manage animal shelters better than Trump is doing for our brothers and sisters. #WeAreBetterThanThis

          Thank you Sen. Markey. I am your constituent. Please do *everything* within your power to stop this inhumane abuse, including abolishing ICE and closing these concentration camps. My heart breaks for these families and the Trump Admin Zero Tolerance policy is a national shame.

          I feel like it is more a political play to his supporters who think this is how we should treat immigrants. He is trying to get votes. He doesn’t care if immigrants come in. Actually, he does, he needs them to work at his resorts. But he wants it to look like he is tough on imm.
