but regardless...why does this matter if they have kept track of where children and parents are and have reunified them. I do suppose you are right that they did not respond about the length of the contract but I guess, what does that matter? If they are fighting against the governments human rights abuses, keeping children out of large shelters, and taking great care of separated children and quickly reuniting them with their families (they also often help inform these families of resources where they are settling and refer them to good legal help) what is that worth? What does it have to do with the issue at hand? Again, we don't like Betsy Devos' decisions and plans for our education system, we don't like politicians that her grandparents have supported. Let's do our part to fight against that, but let's not make this into something its not.
