Dear Friend,
The Zero Tolerance policy enacted by the Trump administration that created
family separation is a stain on our nation’s history. Using children as
ploys in the name of immigration enforcement is not only illegal, but
incredibly immoral, inhumane, and damaging to those families impacted by
this harmful policy.
[ [link removed] ]Sign on! Tell the Biden Administration to right the wrongs of Trump's
cruel Zero Tolerance policy and to take immediate action to prevent family
separation from ever happening again! *When you click, you’ll

This is a critical moment! Right now, the Department of Homeland Security
(DHS) is asking for comments from the public on how to keep this cruel
policy of family separation from ever happening again. The agency will
then collect all public comments and write up a report detailing how to
prevent the federal government in the future from separating children from
their parents. And guess what? That report will go directly to President
Biden’s desk! He needs to know that the fair treatment of immigrant
families is a priority for moms and everyone who cares about families.
That’s where you come in!

right the wrongs of Trump’s cruel family separation policy and ensure
children and families are not separated by our immigration system! *When

The nation and world have been horrified by the cruel and vicious way
the Trump administration treated asylum-seeking families. These policies
cause deep and lasting trauma to children and parents who come to our
country seeking help and escape from violence and natural disasters. It
is important to not only acknowledge the cruel policy that led to the
separation of families, including breastfeeding mothers and their infant
children, but to commit ourselves as a nation that our government
agencies will never repeat the horrific practice of separating
families.
We urge the federal government to never use this cruel policy of family
separation and end the continued endangerment of parents and children
through the use of Migrant Protection Protocol and Title 42. Both of
which have resulted in thousands of reports of kidnappings and violent
attacks against migrants in Mexico and improperly turning away people
seeking safety and protection in the U.S.
To ensure that family separation and these consequent policies are never
used again we, the moms of America, urge the Biden administration to
take the following steps:
* Expand the definition of family to include close relatives, and
caregivers, who may be traveling with immigrant children in lieu of
their parents;
* Reunify all families and bring them back to the U.S. if they’ve been
deported;
* Provide immediate protections from detention and deportation, and
support a pathway to citizenship for separated families;
* Make systemic changes to ensure an end to family separations,
including ending the use of the Migrant Protection Protocol (MPP)
and Title 42;
* Pursue accountability.
[ [link removed] ]It’s critical we protect vulnerable immigrant parents and children and
ensure family separation never happens again. Don’t forget to add your
name!
Not only does the Biden administration need to reunify all families that
were separated by Trump’s cruel family separation policies, it must end
other Trump era policies like the Remain in Mexico (MPP) and Title 42
policies that improperly turn away people seeking life-saving protection
in the United States and result in children being separated from their
families. For more information on these policies and how they impact
children and families, see: [ [link removed] ]American Immigration Council and [ [link removed] ]The
Young Center.
