If anti-asylum proposals are included in the spending package they could: -
Expand expedited deportations, almost certainly returning children and their families to danger.
- Require mandatory detention including of families with children.
- Force families to separate to seek safety.
We can't let the lives of refugees and migrants be used as political bargaining chips while our nation’s asylum laws are whittled away. Make a New Years resolution to stand with all who seek safety and sign the petition below to #SaveAsylum. |
