Of the estimated 2300 children separated from their parents, how many will never be united...?

...with their parents?

This is unthinkable!

Trump, Sessions, and Nielsen ordered these children to be separated from their parents for a misdemeanor of crossing the border. We don't know if records were kept of these movements? If not, some parents may never see their children again?

Reportedly, they have been moved to 17 different states. Most do not speak any English.

What kind of people do such horrible acts as these?

Now, we hear that some Republicans have finally spoken up and today Donald trump reversed his decision to not separate any more families.

To think that these people are still in power after such a dastardly deed is unbelievable. All of them should have been gone yesterday.

Somebody should be held accountable until each and every one of those children are found.

Is the EO retroactive? Or does it only apply to those who seek asylum after the signing?
The entire EO is a joke. It won't solve the problems, it'll only get worse now.
