Immigration Raids: Leaving Children Behind
There are three million children in the U.S. with at least one parent who is an undocumented resident.
What happens to them when their parents are swept up in an immigration raid?
What is going to happen to the children? These children are American-born," said Helena Marques, executive director of the Immigrant Assistance Center in New Bedford. "There are hundreds of children out there without their moms, in tremendous need. These babies have become the victims of a problem that legislators can't seem to fix."
It's time for these immigration raids to stop. We need a path to citizenship for those who are already in this country.
