    Looking at this executive order, how does it reunite kids with their parents?

        How do we help reunite these families?? Is there a database, what efforts are being made? Many of these parents have been deported without their children and have no idea where their kids are! What can we do??

        My read of the Trump executive order: 1) They have left clear grounds to keep separating families if they want. 2) They want to keep families together but indefinitely detained, which is currently illegal. 3) They want to make that not illegal. https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/affording-congress-opportunity-address-family-seperation/?utm_source=twitter&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=wh …

        But those who have to enforce have to enforce based on INTENT, so PRESSURE HAS TO STAY on until they are REUNITED.

        And of course it was ultimately about forcing congress to fund a wall.

        Can someone explain why an executive order would be needed for something that wasn’t even a law, just a policy they made up?

        This is simply about creating a crisis to be viewed as the savior when the position is all of a sudden changed for the photo op. We're the stupid ones for falling for it and the fake outrage.

        I was asking the same thing! What’s next? How does this signed piece of paper translate to actually change the reality of those already separated? #UniteTheFamilies
