    I disagree with the administration’s policy of separating families, but we must continue to protect the privacy of the children, many who have experienced trauma. #KeepFamiliesTogether & keep cameras away from these kids. Just like in 2014:https://newsok.com/article/4984947/us-rep-jim-bridenstine-says-he-was-denied-access-to-fort-sill-facility-housing-young-illegal-immigrants …

        I have been numerous times. There are strict child protective service and social worker rules at these facilities. There are many in Congress working on this issue, but we don’t need to politicize the pictures of these kids. There are very real safety issues.

        The safety issue is the irreparable harm done to these children mentally. You dimiss what the doctors and most all of those in the medical field are saying about the separation consequences. You just can't admit the truth.

        2022 is a long time coming, but we must not forget what he has done under the trump admin. without a peep of disagreement when that day comes. He will never go against his dear leader.

        Agree. I didn’t vote for him partly because he refused to call out trump before the 2016 election.

        I have never voted for him. I have yet to see a man called by God to be a minister, leave that calling for politics and be successful. Bible says you can't serve God and mammon, for you will love one and hate the other or hold to one and not the other. Two masters, opposite goals

        Replying to @DianaWelte @ritamayfield2 and

        My parents voted for him and have both spoken about regretting it after finding out his current stance on H.R 620. I think he is going to have quite a lot of Republicans looking for someone to replace him. 2022 is too long.

        Will you be signing on with @SenFeinstein's bill to put an end to this human rights violation, this cruelty? On #FathersDay would be a good time to sign on as a co-sponsor. #AmericanGulag

        You are useless. We need someone with the courage of their convictions and that is obviously not you or the rest of the GOP. We wouldn’t have to worry about a child’s privacy if you had the guts to do what is right.
