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 xitter.cf/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. History has its eyes on us — and will judge today’s decision harshly. #NoMuslimBanEver

President Trump's executive order is just political theater and we will not be buying tickets to the show. You have the power to change the course of this country by calling 1-844-797-4602 to tell Congress what you think! #FamiliesBelongTogether

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.
