The painful case of Josefina and Clara

Josefina's baby was only 9 months old and Clara1 's children were 1 and 6 when they were placed in foster care homes with strangers. Clara and Josefina, sisters at the beginning of their 30 years living together in a small town in New Mexico, had done nothing to hurt their children or to attract the attention of the Department of Child Care.

A team of federal immigration agents arrived at the front door of Clara and Josefina's mobile home in New Mexico, the Immigration and customs Control service ICE had received a false tip that the sisters , who were undocumented immigrants, had drugs in their home. Although they did not find any incriminating evidence in the trailer, and the sisters had no legal background, ice called the CPS Child Protection service to take custody of the children and Ice stopped the
Sisters for their immigration status.

During the four months that ICE kept them detained, Josefina and Clara had no idea where their children were. In December, the sisters were deported and their children remained under foster care. Josefina was very calm as she spoke on the phone from Mexico a year after she was deported: "I don't know where my son is; I have no contact with my baby. I didn't do anything wrong to keep my son away from me. "

That there are at least 5100 children Who currently live in temporary foster care whose Parents have been detained or deported.

Immigration policies and laws are based on the assumption that families will be and should be united, whether parents are deported or not. Similarly, child welfare policy aspires to reunify families where possible.

In practice, however, when mothers and fathers are detained and deported and their children are relegated to temporary foster care, family separation can reach prolonged periods. Very often, these children lose the opportunity to see their parents again when a juvenile dependency court cancels their parental rights (also known as parental authority).

It is a pity you used the Times magazine cover, since they are pro Corporate marxism (Globalists) and the parents of the little girl publicly said she was only crying because she wanted her mummy to feed her - which did happen within minutes. Trump was never by the little girl, it was just a created picture by Times so as to attack Trump.

I thought, from your other posts, you are anti-communist.
