Today is the deadline for the Trump Admin to reunite all families separated at the border. That’s why folks are marching to the Capitol in a call to return ALL 3,000 children they have ripped apart from their parents. #IAmAChild #FamiliesBelongTogether

ICE assaulted Andrea Martinez at 3:30am with a 3 year-old child and a pregnant woman. This cannot be tolerated. We are grateful for such courageous colleagues in this fight. #theworldiswatching #laluchasigue #familiesbelongtogether x.com/justinjm1/status/10116…

BREAKING: SCOTUS has upheld Trump’s Muslim ban. This is not the first time the Court has been wrong, or has allowed official racism and xenophobia to continue rather than standing up to it.

Spoke with attorney Nicole Cortes with the @MICAprojectSTL during the #WorldRefugeesDay March on Grand at 4pm. Said president’s EO took us from -10 to maybe a -8 on our immigration situation. Before his zero tolerance policy, we were at -2. About 200 marched today.
