These stories were chilling and made clear where we need to direct our resources: humane care. access to due process. and support to end the violence and poverty plaguing Honduras. El Salvador. and Guatemala. Now. no one disagrees with protecting our borders. but come on. we also have a duty to protect these children who. according to the United Nations High Commission on Refugees. 60 percent of whom were interviewed. these children need international protection. My home district makes up Alameda County. where over 200 of these children have been reunited with their families locally. Their stories are real. and their stories are very. very powerful. so I urge a "no" vote.
