This is a regulatory backdoor approach to separate more families. We’ve seen this before when Trump attempted to enact his draconian agenda of restricting legal immigration through Congress — but failed. 2/ #ProtectFamilies
The lead-up to this policy is already producing a damaging chilling effect. Families are foregoing critical, basic needs to stay healthy and thrive for fear of being shut out of the immigration process. politi.co/2Q4nVNZ 3/ #ProtectFamilies
Imagine having to choose between feeding your children or being allowed to live in the US permanently. How you live your life and contribute to your community should define you in this country, not how much money you have or how you look. 4/ #ProtectFamilies
By law, the Trump admin. is required to post this unjust order on Regulations.gov to give the public the opportunity to weigh in before it can be considered finalized. It’s crucial that everyone adds their voice during the comment period. Your voice matters. 5/
This is a critical moment in our country right now. The difference between right and wrong is clear. That’s why it’s so important that we fight back against this cruel regulation. 6/ #ProtectFamilies
This policy is cruel, and geared to disrupt the lives of the most vulnerable among us. The more people like you who post comments against the order, the more likely we can disrupt or even stop it. When the comment period opens, we’ll be here to help guide you. Follow us. 7/7
