While we celebrate the Fourth, there are refugee families who’ve walked thousands of miles to legally seek asylum in this country sleeping on concrete floors with aluminum blankets and no medical care. This is a stain on our nation and we need to do something now. Contact your representatives tomorrow to demand they #CloseTheCamps. (Link in bio) #4thofjuly #AmericanPie #resist

And now some thoughts from me... Again, seeking asylum is NOT ILLEGAL. What we are willfully doing to these people is wrong. We are violating our own laws to cast them as law breakers, to detain them and abuse them. Tax payers are being forced to fund this abuse to the tune of $775/day/person. Private corporations are making tens of millions of dollars to harm these asylum seekers. 27 dead by our hands, and counting. A stain, indeed. If you want to celebrate the best of America, take two minutes today to call your reps, and leave a message demanding that we uphold our actual values, and that we #CloseTheCamps. If this “is not who we are,” then we mustn’t sit by silently and let this be who we’ve become. ♥️

America was born full of ideas, the choice is to be able to speak freely to pursue our own religion freely and be able to take care of her family freely. On this particular day should be honoring what this country means instead of fighting over it. and all the statements that I've read so far closing to camp does not solve the biggest problem at the borders of our country. I understand there are thousands of people leaving their country to come to America for a better life. In America we have a procedure that allows those immigrants to come to our country with opportunity to help them offer them a better life. For all the crying over the camps we should be working together to solve the problem. the problem is thousands of people want to come in this country and there's not enough staff or support or money help them out to help the process. So instead of arguing over what we're doing wrong maybe we should put the ideas where money is I work together help those people. Instead of showing a cake talking about this the cake should be representing it is of us working together one country United for its people. Food for thought the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few. so let's be like Spock and work together to help all those don't want a better life. And I'm not just talking about the immigrants I'm talking about the homeless people are living in our streets in our woods I'm off talking about the homeless vets or those who represent our military who are suffering. Time for us to unite as a country to represent the voiceless people. Amen God bless America

@sophiabush please do your own investigating and quit parroting the talking points on the left. People need to contact their representatives to tell them to quit thinking about their own re-election and tackle the problem at the border by passing immigration laws that make sense! The US needs to quit incentivizing them to come here by offering free healthcare and government services. Yes people are coming into this country to seek asylum and just wanting a better life. Add those to all the others not just from Mexico but now from Venezuela, Africa, India, etc and you have an all out crisis at the border! Facilities are so overrun with asylum seekers and others it has slowed the process to sort who is who. Which is not easy when you also have to sort out the gang members, cartel, children traffickers and the like. ICE, Border Patrol, DHS and all the other agencies and contractors are doing their best. Until you’ve been there or even better yet worked in a facility you can never truly understand the crisis. This is a government problem that they are ignoring. So no, let’s not open the borders to just anyone and close the centers. Let’s pass immigration laws that actually make sense. Call your representative and tell them to do their job!

I admire you for your charitable work but you and your rich friends need to stop being so naive. Think: who will pay for all these refugees once they are in the US? Who’s paying for their food and shelter for the rest of their lives here? Are they going to pay taxes just like us citizens? Where will they go? Why are we helping them when we have our own crisis:veterans, poverty, healthcare and simple middle income Americans not being able to afford things here. My parents came here legally and despite working hard, are still in low income housing and never given any free handouts yet you want us taxpayers to do that to people? If we are to invite everyone from every country that have problems, how do you think we’re going to support them? Why don’t you and your rich friends give money and fix these peoples countries? Believe me, I feel bad for all these people but we need to find better solutions.

@kharting116 you’re assuming that everyone who shows up at our border is seeking asylum. They’re all not. The border is overwhelmed with people from Africa, India, Venezuela, etc that it’s taking even more time to sort through everyone. Asylum seekers are very different than those who are just trying to get into the US for the free stuff. And yes there’s a percentage of people wanting to come here with no intentions of working. Shocking I know but it’s the truth. Sorting through everyone and their reasons for wanting to come here, then add those crossing illegally, and you have a major backlog. Money is only a temporary fix. We need sensible immigration laws and to stop incentivizing people to come here. It’s a difficult situation and there are no easy answers. I guess that’s why congress won’t address it. Also if it’s unpopular they know they’ll be out of a job.

@cassandraleighann Yes, I know how the colonies began on stolen land. A place that was made to offer freedom did so at the expense of the Indians. I know that. But I also know that it has become a refuge to many. I am a product of many different nationalities because my ancestors were able to come here. Irish, German, French, American Indian. I am grateful, thankful, and blessed to have been able to grow up in America and to raise my children here. I am not at all saying we should close our borders, because that isn’t the American way and it’s not what we stand for. I AM saying our current system is failing. That we need a new one. The sheer number of people willing to risk everything to come here PROVES that they believe in freedom and the American Dream. They shouldn’t have to sell everything they own and travel thousands of miles to find it.

@aricakane1st you are wrong!!!! I live in Michigan I work in flint; they have received federal funding, and state funding. People who don’t live in flint or work in flint have no clue; through no fault of their own. The news Cameras don’t like to show that National Gaurd was mobilized and millions of cases of bottled water were handed out. Stores had to stop accepting returns because jack asses were returning the water for money :( the police and military had set up distribution centers because of violence. The city council voted NO On hooking up to Detroit city water because they didn’t want a water bill; there were so many other options for the people of flint and the city has screwed them time and time again. Sorry for the rant lol my point being they did receive funding lol
