When it comes to news in the United States, immigration is on the forefront. For, as a result of the government separating children from parents at the border, there are now many missing immigrant children. While some have now been reunited, there are still hundreds, if not over a thousand whom remain lost in the system.
For, there are those such as sitting Attorney General Jeff Sessions who believe that any one entering or residing the country illegally need to returned to the point of origin. In past situations, it appears there have been children held in wait of parents being processed. In those cases, it also appears that there was a process in which families and children whom were denied asylum were reunited before deportation.
The crisis became more of an issue once pictures were distributed of children being held in dog cages or housed like prisoners in a chain link fenced area. Whether due to the large numbers, a lack of supervision or criminal activity, there has also never been well documented and known acts of physical and sexual violence against those awaiting asylum or deportation.
When kids are taking care of babies, there is a problem. For, many of those in charge of taking care of the youngest of these children often have no experience whatsoever in child care. Whereas, there have also been reports of many being physically or sexually abused, or both at multiple locations while awaiting a reunion. While there has been no proof of such allegations, neither has there been denial on the part of the government or staff at many of these temporary housing facilities.
If the country thought it had immigration problems in the past, the news regarding the present and future aspects of immigration does not look good. For, the United States is a country founded on immigration. In fact, most people in the United States, other than Native Americans are descendants of immigrants. In fact, the President of the United States is married to an immigrant and is the son of a mother, whom only recently gained U. S. Citizenship.
A number of children have been reunited with guardians, parents or family members with the help of attorneys or public agencies. While this is great for those whom have found assistance, there are many others still waiting in the wings. As such, it is feared that many of these individuals may forever be lost in a system without ever knowing what happened to guardians, parents or family members.
While Health and Human Services have been able to house some of the children with distant family members, others are now being housed in hot tents on a number of U. S. Military bases. One such example, is a base outside El Paso which often has temps of over 121 in Summer. At this location, many children are now living in tents with box fans being the only relief from the hot Summer heat.
While there are lessons to be learned with regards to the current situation, there will no doubt still be difficulties with regards to immigration and the Zero Tolerance policy set by, whom many believe to be, a very racist Attorney General. As such, it will be interesting to see how this issue and others will effect the upcoming mid-term and 2020 Presidential election.
