#ReuniteEveryChild Now

The Issue

Last summer, the Trump administration separated nearly 3,000 children from their parents at the U.S.-Mexico border when they instituted a new “zero tolerance” policy. A San Diego judge ordered the administration to #ReuniteEveryChild, however lawyers from the American Civil Liberties Union told a federal judge that the Trump administration has taken nearly 1,000 migrant children from their parents at the U.S.-Mexico border since the judge ordered the end to the administration’s family separation policy! 

Our federal government is inflicting harm and trauma upon these children through this mistreatment. Experts in child welfare have been clear, these separations are traumatic and have lifelong consequences for the children and their families.

At Define American, we are asking everyone, especially journalists, to demand a plan from the administration to immediately #ReuniteEveryChild with their parents on U.S. soil.

Will you sign on and demand that the Trump Administration must immediately #ReuniteEveryChild?
