BRING THEIR PARENTS BACK!
Hundreds of immigrant children remain separated from their moms and dads because the Trump Administration deported their parents after separating them at the border. DHS needs to reunite these families by bringing these parents back!
Why is this important?
For months, the Trump Administration separated immigrant parents and children at the border as part of their “zero tolerance” policy.
Today, HUNDREDS of children remain apart from their families, and there have been horrendous reports of what has happened to them in detention, including children who were forced to drink toilet water and children who were sexually abused.
Many of these children have parents who have already been deported. Many of these parents were lied to by border agents, and potentially coerced into signing deportation documents that they didn’t understand.
The best way to make sure these reunifications happen is to bring these parents back to the U.S. They should be reunited with their children and allowed to pursue the asylum cases they came to the U.S. to seek.
The Department of Homeland Security has separated these families. They need to make this right. Tell DHS chief Kirstjen Nielsen that we need to reunite immigrant families by bringing deported parents back!
