It’d be unthinkable to step onto an NFL field or enter a Championship race w/out proper training. It’d be tragic to deny our children needed preparation for education & life – that preparation yields a successful future for our children & our nation playerscoalition.medium.com/honest-educati…

We, along with @TheYoungCenter and 38 other orgs, are proud to endorse the Children’s Safe Welcome Act. The U.S. must value family unity and #WelcomeAllChildren, protecting the rights of those who are most vulnerable among us. Read the letter here: youthlaw.org/news/childrens…
Senator Jeff Merkley@SenJeffMerkley

Today, @SenatorDurbin, @gillibrandny, @RepKarenBass, and I introduced the Children’s Safe Welcome Act—comprehensive legislation that will help us build an immigration system that protects the well-being of children in our care. #WelcomeAllChildren

Our immigration system was designed for adults —piecemeal changes made over the years don’t fully reflect the distinctive needs of children. The Children’s Safe Welcome Act is another step toward an immigration system that respects the dignity of each person. #WelcomeAllChildren
Senator Jeff Merkley@SenJeffMerkley

The Children’s Safe Welcome Act will codify child welfare protections, prohibit family separations, and guarantee legal representation for children. Learn more about how we can #WelcomeAllChildren ⬇️ merkley.senate.gov/news/press-rel…

Although the government has moved to transition the remaining EISs into Influx Care Facilities with somewhat higher standards, it’s not enough. Large-scale unlicensed facilities are inherently inappropriate and unsafe for children. youthlaw.org/unregulated-un…

Robb Elementary has 576 students—and 84% are economically disadvantaged. Now 19 were murdered, 17 have bullet wounds, & 538 are emotionally scarred the rest of their lives. The school has 1 Counselor. ONE. Yet, Uvalde Police is 40% of the town budget. This Is A Failed System.
