Political Quotes

“This morning, today, we have arrived in Washington to fight for postal workers, the United States Postal Service, in H.R. 8015. But I take this moment to acknowledge close to almost 175,000 dead Americans who have died from COVID-19. I applaud those who have taken a moment out of their lives to march for those who have passed and mourn for those families. This is not America. And I acknowledge something else that comes to my attention that hurts my heart as a mother, and that is the Trump administration's policy to separate children. That the United Nations has condemned it as torture and abuse of children--some upwards of 5,000 children. Their own White House immigration specialists, if you will, want it to be 25,000 children. This is not America. Today, we fight for those who have come to our doors in rain, snow, or shine. We must also fight for the children and never again in America see any policy that snatches children away from their families. Immigrant or nonimmigrant, we are Americans who have values that stand for something--equality and justice. ____________________”
