@USCCRgov The Commission shares the accounts of migrants who suffered under the Trump Admin’s policies.
Upon arriving in the US, migrants were humiliated, shouted at, and held in horrific conditions.
They waited in ICE custody – cold, hungry, and without medical care or translators.

@USCCRgov Another migrant explains their loss of dignity.
They were sexually and psychologically abused. When they reported their suffering, officers did not listen.

@USCCRgov The Commission also details the Trump Administration’s enforcement of #ZeroTolerance.
Thousands of families were torn apart and the federal govt had no plan to reunify them.
Despite #ZeroTolerance ending, the Admin is still separating families.

@USCCRgov The Commission found that the Trump Administration needlessly separated families under #ZeroTolerance & failed to track these families.
These parents were just seeking a better life– now, they may never see their children again.

These children died – slowly and painfully - because of the neglect they endured in US custody.

@USCCRgov Children who survived detention and family separation were left with horrific trauma.
These children were sad, constantly scared, and refused to eat. They may never recover from this government sanctioned child abuse.

@USCCRgov Across detention facilities, men, women, and children suffered sexual abuse, assault, and rape.
Some were victimized by staff members of the facilities.

@USCCRgov Migrants were trapped in these horrific detention conditions with no escape. They didn’t have access to legal resources, translators, or lawyers.
They were systematically denied their legal rights and due process under US law.

@USCCRgov In the conclusion, Commissioner Michael Yaki recalls instances of Pres Trump calling immigrants an “invasion” or “animals” that “infest our Country.”
Trump's policies are driven by hate.
We, as Americans, have a moral responsibility to stop his horrific treatment of migrants.

@USCCRgov We are so much better than this agenda of cruelty.
We must stand by our American values.
We must keep fighting until every family is reunited.
We must treat immigrants with DIGNITY and RESPECT.
