    “Please present yourself at a port of entry”?!? These families are being BLOCKED from setting foot on American soil AT our ports. It is precisely that US policy that is driving families to the seek entry at more treacherous and deadly crossings — and DHS knows this full well.https://twitter.com/Haleaziz/status/1073446786843299840 …

        Exactly. And that makes their statement all the more cruel and deliberate.

        I'm curious. How are they being blocked, as individuals or families, from approaching the port of entry with the tens of thousands of others crossing the border back and forth each day? From just getting in line and presenting themselves when they get to the check?

        Because those thousands of people aren't seeking asylum. Entirely different process.

        I heard your powerful words at the rally at Tornillo by video from here in Brooklyn. I’m so glad that you’ll be representing Texas in Congress soon!

        The store is closed, but I super duper want to go in, so I guess they are forcing me to break in. 🤷‍♂️

        No. The correct analogy would be that you’re starving, and the only grocery store is locked 24/7 — but the store owner tells the public that you’re welcome anytime and says that you starving is your fault.
