Episode 12 - Action Alert! Stop Family Separation at the Border
Listen now
Description
Action Alert: CBP/DHS has resumed family separation at the border. Lawyers for Good Government is organizing a public awareness campaign around it and urging people to call CBP/DHS and object to this change in policy. Here is what to do: Call the public comment lines for CBP (Customs & Border Partrol) at 877-CBP-5511 and DHS (Dep't of Homeland Security) at 202-282-8495 and share that you oppose the new "dangerous and impossible policy of forcing all members of a family to secure a separate appointment and to instead KEEP FAMILIES TOGETHER." (Language in quotes from Lawyers for Good Government) You can also urge your Representatives to join Reps. Chuy Garcia (D-IL) and Raúl Grijalva (D-AZ)'s congressional letter by today at 2PM ET. That means calling your member of Congress and asking them to sign onto the letter. Don't know who your member of Congress is? Call the congressional switchboard at 202-224-3121 to be connected to your rep.
