    Thank you + for introducing legislation that rejects the Trump Administration’s cruel decision to separate children from their parents and calls for the reunification of these families.

    Thx & our 50 cosponsors for partnering on Central America Family Protection & Reunification Act to address root causes of child migration & bring attention to the gender-based violence forcing mothers with young children to make dangerous journey to US
