Parents & children are not just being separated at the border. They are being separated in every state by @ICEgov - an immoral force ripping apart families everywhere. It’s time to #AbolishICE so we can #FreeOurFuture and #EndFamilySeparation.

U.S. Citizens - Call Congress and ask them use their oversight authority to #EndFamilySeparation. We must ensure the rights of children and parents are respected, and our legal system is allowed to work. Call- [phone] to share this important message. #ReuniteFamiliesNow

@DHSGov - the @UN has recommended guidelines for human rights at international borders bit.ly/2typSbW . The actions the DHS is taking do not comply with these guidelines. Stop the human rights abuses! #ReuniteFamiliesNow #EndFamilyDetention @womensmarch @UnitedWeDream

. @DHSGov @ICEGov - we call for you to implement a plan to:

1. Reunite every single family that remains brutally torn apart -- and prove it

2. Permanently end the separation of children and indefinite detention.

@DHSGov There is no practical, legal, or moral justification for separating families at the US border. Reunite them now — and now means NOW. #FamiliesBelongTogether #ReuniteFamiliesNow

@DHSGov has no apparent plan to reunite families it separated—parents are forced to do the work themselves in a foreign country. #FamiliesBelongTogether #ReuniteFamiliesNow

@DHSGov says it’s stopped separating families b/c it lacks the resources. The lack of morality was apparently not a factor. #FamiliesBelongTogether #ReuniteFamiliesNow

Apprehensions of illegal entries at the southern border are at 1970s levels. What migration crisis, @DHSGov? #FamiliesBelongTogether #ReuniteFamiliesNow tinyurl.com/ybg3vkld

The only crises are 1) crime and instability in Central America, and 2) the imaginary one made up by @DHSGov & the Trump admin: using people’s lives and playing on the fears of others for their own purposes. #FamiliesBelongTogether #ReuniteFamiliesNow

ZERO TOLERANCE=ZERO HUMANITY Such policies are also proven useless in reducing immigration. @DHSGov would know. #FamiliesBelongTogether #ReuniteFamiliesNow

“Zero tolerance” is a Justice Dept policy, not a law passed by Congress. @DHSGov already knows: THIS IS ALL IN @POTUS’s hands! #FamiliesBelongTogether #ReuniteFamiliesNow

@DHSGov children are not pawns. Not for votes, not for money, not for anything. Only you can’t seem to see this. #FamiliesBelongTogether #ReuniteFamiliesNow

The Trump administration has not done what it can to stop this humanitarian crisis. The solution is clear: Reunite families. End family separation and detention. #FamiliesBelongTogether #ReuniteFamiliesNow

Trump has not fixed the humanitarian crisis he created. There are still thousands of children separated from their families, some in cages, and with no concrete plans for reunification. #FamiliesBelongTogether #ReuniteFamiliesNow

Trump is now jailing entire families—still traumatizing children, still jailing families fleeing violence, and still without a process for full reunification. #FamiliesBelongTogether #ReuniteFamiliesNow

Children have been torn away from their parents, not knowing if they will ever see their families again. This is cruel and abusive. #FamiliesBelongTogether #ReuniteFamiliesNow

Every parent has had that moment when they couldn’t see their kid for a split second. Imagine being intentionally separated from your child and not knowing when you’ll see them next. #FamiliesBelongTogether #ReuniteFamiliesNow

Trump is willing to hurt thousands of children and families just to score political points with white nationalists. Children belong with their families and in their communities, not in cages or in dangerous conditions. #FamiliesBelongTogether #ReuniteFamiliesNow

Family comes first, but @dhsgov has separated mothers from children, husbands from wives, and sisters from brothers. Anything that tears apart our families or endangers them is unacceptable for any person, and should be for any nation. #FamiliesBelongTogether #ReuniteFamiliesNow

We all know that separating families is wrong. Thousands, millions of people continue to show their outrage and their support in keeping all families together. This not a political issue, it’s a moral one. #FamiliesBelongTogether #ReuniteFamiliesNow

We demand an end to this crisis and won’t stop until we have concrete evidence that children are no longer being separated, no longer jailed in cages and every child has been reunified with their parents. #FamiliesBelongTogether #ReuniteFamiliesNow

@DHSgov: watch this testimony –tinyurl.com/y7qw64mz– and realize people don’t migrate because they want to, but because they have to. This inhumane policy only serves to aggravate a life-or-death situation. #FamiliesBelongTogether #ReuniteFamiliesNow

Migration is a global issue. We demand humane treatment of those arriving at all borders, fleeing war, violence, hunger, and abject poverty. There is no solution in zero tolerance and sowing fear. #FamiliesBelongTogether #ReuniteFamiliesNow
