so many people just dont understand the desperation that leads to these crises. they blame the immigrants for wanting a better life. how horribly unchristian that is, blaming those who are willing to risk their young lives for a safer and more productive life. The president acknowledged earlier this week that the situation had reached crisis levels on the border, as children from Honduras, Guatemala and El Salvador flee deepening poverty and violence. Nearly 50,000 children have been caught crossing the border without parents since Oct. 1, The New York Times reported Monday. The influx of unaccompanied children across the southwest border has resulted in an urgent humanitarian situation, a Department of Homeland Security official emailed on background. The President has directed Secretary Johnson to establish an interagency Unified Coordination Group to ensure unity of effort across the Administration in responding effectively to this humanitarian situation. This effort, lead and coordinated by FEMA, is quickly marshalling resources across the government to provide humanitarian relief to affected children. Addressing the rising flow of unaccompanied children crossing our southwest border is an important priority of this Administration and the Department of Homeland Security. Jasmine Titus Id like to see your church somehow get involved in this cause..... perhaps we can do a fund drive???
