Fear of deportation,lack of resources, and it's purposefully complicated. The path to citizenship should be expanded... but won't be under this political regime. That asylum seekers only have one year to apply makes it impossible. Global displacement of people is a big issue - we should do our part.

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. That is our Declaration and it shld include all people. Thank you for sharing.π

I heard a woman tell the story about how her family's asylum application was ultimately granted, on NPR yesterday. Brought me to tears (and not just a couple.)
We need to be telling these stories. The right have dehumanized these people. We need to REhumanize them.

Me too.! I volunteered to help refugees under the Remain in Mexico policy. There were women & children who had trekked across Mexico from Central America. Some had trafficked themselves to pay for transport - only to be in a 'camp' with basic necessities not being met waiting to cross the border π

Thank you CJ. I appreciate the info. I feel so awful for how the travelers to our country are treated when they stay and become part of the community. π

Do you mean asking for asylum? Or do you mean the 18-24 month naturalization process? I wonder why more ppl here for a long time do not take that route?

Unfortunately 22 million people didn't feel that way so they didn't vote I'm pretty sure if they had voted things could have changed. So for you 22 million that didn't like the brown lady you got this f****** orange man

Very true. America does not always back the good guy. Or takes too long a time to stop a massacre of people, the rapes of women as weapons of war.

In some cases. These people fled their native country under threat of death for opposing a dictator. Sometimes a dictator installed or supported by the US government. Think Nicaragua and Chile. Anyone remember CIA overthrow to install Pinochet?

You see men on a corner just looking for the chance of a day's work for some pay. Bothering nobody, not asking for freebies. Makes me cry to think of those who want to cause them harm. I am glad for your day. Big hug for him and you.π€

I know how you feel. Time for some fun. I am going to SC to visit a friend on Thurs. I need to be around good, smart people to save myself from evil and stupid. Take a mini vac if possible or a day off for you.π©·β₯οΈ

It must! It is too sad and unfair to do to families what Trump and his MAGAs want to do to millions of people.
