(CNN) – U.S. Health and Human Services reports a record 14,000 immigrant children are now living in U.S. detention camps and shelters.

That’s up from the 2016 monthly average of 4,000 to 9,000 children.

Health and Human Services says the high number of detained children is because of Trump-administration policies to “reduce risk and increase safety.”

Those policies include exhaustive screenings of adult-sponsors wanting to take care of the detained children.
Some are suing the Trump administration, accusing it of intentionally holding-on to some children until they turn 18, when they would go to more strict detention.

Children separated under Trump’s so-called “zero tolerance” policy account for less than 200 of the reported 14,000 reported.

These children need to be sent back to their home countries and put in the care of their home government, pronto.

Process and deport all UAC's within 48 hours.

We cannot take in every child on the planet!

Stop this human trafficking. They are their President's responsibility to take care of and find their relatives back home.

WE ARE NOT THE DAYCARE CENTER FOR THE WORLD

DO NOT RELEASE THEM ON OUR SOIL...SEND THEM BACK WITHIN 48 HOURS...THIS HAS TO STOP!
