Dear Friends,

I just signed the petition "Keep Homestead Child Detention Center Closed" and wanted to ask if you could add your name too.

This campaign means a lot to me and the more support we can get behind it, the better chance we have of succeeding. You can read more and sign the petition here:

If you want to learn more:  Serendipitously, this morning I listened to a podcast on KQED Forum.  https://www.kqed.org/forum/2010101882484/biden-pushing-to-reunite-separated-migrant-children-but-hurdles-remain

It contains clear information about the ongoing, brutal crisis for migrant children.  The Trump administration cruelly and brutally separated young children from their parents at the border years ago. First of all, they never should have been ripped away from their parents.  The children were imprisoned in detention centers under atrocious physical and psychological conditions.  As well, I had just finished reading Faraway Brothers,  the painful story of twin brothers, who left El Salvador because of death threats and gang violence directed at them and their family.
