Thank you @POTUS for taking critical action ending family separation at our border. Congress must now act + find a lasting solution that is consistent with our shared values;the same values that so many come here seeking as they endeavor to create a better life for their families

Trump to Sign ‘Preemptive’ Order to End Family Separations at Border


June 20, 2018


President Trump said Wednesday that he would sign an executive order, drafted by Homeland Security secretary Kirstjen Nielsen, ending the practice of separating children from their parents after families are caught attempting to cross the border illegally.


Trump indicated that he would sign the order to end his administration’s “zero tolerance” immigration-enforcement policy, which has thus far separated roughly 2,000 children from parents who are awaiting trial. The order is expected to ensure that families remain together in specially equipped detention centers during their prosecution.


“I’ll be signing something in a little while that’s going to do that. I’ll be doing something that’s somewhat preemptive and ultimately will be matched by legislation I’m sure,” Trump told the White House press pool.


Administration officials reportedly expect a legal challenge to the new policy of detaining families together due to a 1997 order that mandates children be released from federal custody after 20 days.
Trump’s newfound willingness to act unilaterally to end family separation stands in sharp contrast to his repeated insistence that the practice could only be interrupted through legislative action.


The president’s comments came moments after Speaker Paul Ryan announced that the House will vote Thursday on immigration legislation that, in addition to increasing funding for border security and granting amnesty to Dreamers, would end the family separation policy and fund family detention centers. In a concession to conservatives, the House is also expected to vote Thursday on a more hardline immigration bill that does not address family separations; though neither bill has the requisite Democratic support to pass.

Trump seems ready to keep families together in defiance of 9th Circuit's interpretation of Flores settlement

NOT EVERY PERSON ON THE PLANET CAN COME HERE "FOR A BETTER LIFE" IVANKA!

THEY NEED A "BETTER LIFE" ON THEIR SOIL

OUR CITIZENS AND OUR CHILDREN'S QUALITY OF LIFE IS SUFFERING FROM THIS...YOURS ARE NOT. WE CANNOT AFFORD TO GIVE WELFARE, FOOD STAMPS, HOUSING, MEDICAL CARE AND CASH ALLOWANCE TO EVERY PERSON WHO SHOWS UP ON OUR DOORSTEP!

YOU ARE FORCING AMERICAN TAXPAYERS TO SACRIFICE OUR PAYCHECKS AND HAND THEM OVER TO ILLEGAL ALIENS!

YOUR CHILDREN ARE IN NICE SAFE SCHOOLS, HAVE THE BEST CLOTHES, HOMES AND VACATIONS YOUR MONEY CAN BUY! OURS DO NOT HAVE THAT LUXURY!

Those 2,000 children who have been exploited by their parents and sent here alone need to be processed and send immediately back into the care and custody of their President!

They cannot stay here! Do not force us to pay for this! We live paycheck to paycheck and YOU are making our families suffer for criminal illegal alien trespassers who suffer NO consequences for their actions.

American parents are put in jail and their children are handed over to their relatives.

Now send those children back and into the arms of their relatives on their soil!

THAT IS DISCRIMINATION AGAINST OUR OWN CHILDREN THAT THESE ILLEGAL ALIENS GET SPECIAL PREFERENCE AND TREATMENT AND NOT HELD TO THE SAME LAWS AND POLICIES OUR OWN CHILDREN ARE SUBJECT TO!

FILE THAT LAWSUIT AGAINST OUR GOVERNMENT AMERICAN PEOPLE!

Justin Trudeau just announced that CANADA will not separate illegal alien parents from their children.

I suggest all illegal aliens and their children...ALL 5 BILLION OF THEM...go directly to Canada.

You will be welcomed with OPEN ARMS and no charges filed against you.
