This is just one example of how Trump's hasty, harmful executive
order is undermining our American values. It is just one more reason
why, instead of rewriting it, as he says that he is doing, he should
rescind it altogether. But, of course, these children are the lucky ones, the fortunate few
who got a chance to come here legally. Many of my colleagues will recall that, in the summer of 2014,
thousands of children from Central America arrived at our southern
border. Those children were fleeing gangs and violence. Many of them
turned themselves in to the Border Patrol. They were not trying to
sneak in to our country. They were asking for asylum.
