Of 2,000 asylum seekers in this camp, only 40-50 get full meals each day.

They share 2 wooden shower stalls, 10 toilets, and have no cleaning supplies.

They’re living outside, exposed to the elements, without running water and limited food.
texastribune.org/2019/10/25/con… Iris and her baby have been living at this camp since July.

She was turned away from the US by CBP, assured that she and her child would be able to live in a shelter.

Instead, she’s begging on the street, waiting for her asylum interview in December.

NEW -- @USCCRgov has released a groundbreaking report revealing the depths of cruelty of the Trump Administration’s anti-immigrant agenda, including the detention, #FamilySeparation, #ZeroTolerance, & #RemainInMexico.

#DontLookAway – read the full report: usccr.gov/pubs/2019/10-2… @USCCRgov The USCCR report found that the Trump Admin:
❌ Created a humanitarian crisis
❌ Separated families & traumatized children
❌ Discriminated against Latino migrants
❌ Inflicted inhumane, prison-like conditions
❌ Denied justice & legal rights

Here are the facts directly from @OIGatHHS – Trump’s #FamilySeparation agenda traumatized children and caused lasting harm to their mental health.

#DontLookAway from what this administration is doing to innocent children.

Read the full report ⬇️
cnn.com/2019/09/04/pol… @OIGatHHS .@HHSgov faced unique challenges in addressing the mental health needs of separated children, who suffered fear, abandonment, post-traumatic stress, & anxiety. Some cried uncontrollably from “acute grief.”

Of course they did – the Trump Admin tore these kids from their parents.

Since the beginning of the Trump Admin, @DHSgov has abused their power and stolen millions from critical national security projects & accounts to fund Trump’s deportation agenda in @ICEgov. Here are just a few of the accounts they’ve robbed from ⬇️ @DHSgov @ICEgov Last year, ICE stole $9.8 million from FEMA. That same year, Puerto Rico slowly recovered from Hurricane Maria and wildfires devastated communities across California.

.@realDonaldTrump,

Thanks, but no thanks.

I decline your invitation to attend your Hispanic Heritage Month White House reception.

Your rhetoric, actions & policies betray the values upon which #HHM was founded.

Let me explain...

-@RepLujanGrisham Your administration has undermined every bipartisan, bicameral effort we have pursued to help our nation’s Dreamers by making hyper-partisan and radical demands. /2
