Equality Federation Condemns Cruel Family Separation at Border

Equality Federation unequivocally condemns the Trump Administration’s cruel and unnecessary efforts to tear children away from their parents at the border. This practice is the most egregious example of Trump’s actions to erode America’s civil rights and human decency, and is widely condemned by leaders of faith, doctors and childcare professionals, and lawmakers across the political spectrum. We call for an immediate end to the separation and caging of families and voice our support for the Keep Families Together Act, introduced by Senator Feinstein.
