FINALLY! US COMMISSION ON CIVIL RIGHTS SPEAKS OUT!

What About Civil Rights? 

Finally a positive note, however small, the United States Commission on Civil RIghts calls out the Trump Administration for inhumane treatment of immigrants seeking asylum. Is it not, the same is true for our case - an EL Salvadoran, married to a U.S. Citizen, with an immigration approved marriage? The commission's note is a step in the right direction...

 "...the Commission once again has grave concerns about the fair administration of justice due to coercive tactics and lack of due process afforded to these families. Reportedly families seeking refuge are separated and children are shuffled into detention centers in what one judge stated was “if true . . . . brutal, offensive, and fails to comport with traditional notions of fair play and decency.”3 The policies can coerce parents into withdrawing what may be valid asylum applications or otherwise impairing their immigration proceedings, for fear of what may be happening to their children.4 The Commission’s concerns are exacerbated by the apparent animus directed at Mexican and Central American immigrants by the Administration, 5 giving rise to questions of unwarranted discrimination on the basis of national origin."
