Bernie Sanders is only candidate actually organizing to demand Obama to stop deportations,

not just sending a statements.

TAKE ACTION
Ask the federal government: Stop plans for raids and deportations of women and children who fled horrific violence in Latin America.

Sign the petition here:

The media this week reported something that I find not just wrong, but inhumane: The federal government is currently planning "a month-long series of raids in May and June to deport hundreds of Central American mothers and children" who came to our country fleeing horrific violence.

Sending women and children back into harm's way after they already fled horrendous violence in Central America is painful and inhumane, and must be stopped.

Add your name to mine:

President Obama: please use your executive authority to protect families by extending Temporary Protective Status for those who fled from Central America.

- Senator Bernie Sanders
