Earlier this week, by unanimous vote of the King County Council, we called upon the Trump administration to end their policy of stripping children from their parents as they enter the United States.
Separating children from their parents is a cruel and unnecessary act that does nothing to make our country safer. As a mother—and as a human being—it is heartbreaking to imagine the trauma and suffering this inflicts on both the children and the parents. We cannot stand silently and allow this to continue happening or allow King County resources to be used to needlessly tear families apart. Read more about this issue on my blog.
Until next time,
