Although@POTUS promised a humane asylum system, his administration is continuing the U.S. govt’s attacks on asylum. The right to asylum should not be limited based on nationality, financial means, or ties to the United States. Take action: https://t.co/Z6NAtBXSIU

This year, over 850 migrants have lost their lives while trying to cross the US-MX border in search of safety.

That's over 850 friends, parents, and siblings who uniquely reflect the divine. That's 850 irreplaceable lives, an incalculable and tragically avoidable loss.
