I think we learned a couple of important things this week:

19. The Executive Order still gives them leeway to separate families.

Some reporters have been questioning the EO and asking whether it is essentially window dressing and an effort by Trump to take off the pressure. Then once attention is eslewhere, he’ll go back to the same policy. Plus, we need to keep up the pressure to reunite those kids who have been sent all over the country with their parents. We should insist that they all be sent back to Texas immediately to allow parents waiting for hearings to claim their kids. Plus, people who have been deported already without their kids need to be allowed to come back to claim them since DHS/HHS didn’t bother identifying the children well enough so that they know who the parents are. I don’t know how parents of babies can reclaim their kids since the kids can’t talk. This is a mess of Trump’s making and we need to keep it in the public eye until every child is reunited with a parent.
