"SNIP....

A new Fox News poll finds half of American voters say the Trump administration has “gone too far” on immigration enforcement.

The 50% who say enforcement of immigration laws has “gone too far” is more than double, 24%, those who say actions haven’t gone far enough. About one in five say the measures are about right.

By a wide majority — 73% to 24% — Americans favor giving legal status to young people brought to the U.S. illegally as children, so-called Dreamers.

Caging children, depriving people of medications, treating victims of violence like criminals and losing thousands of children is truly deplorable.

and children. The last I read, we are waiting for a bill we can support from the senate? And we are leery about them including something other than humanitarian aid? Like wall money?

I am sure it must be a lot more complex than that...but I wish we acted...people are begging for answers and don’t think our response is near good enough.
