Censure the US on its policy of separating migrant children from parents

Petition Details

The US government has recently pivoted to an excessively cruel policy of separating migrant children (inc. infants) from parents at the border, with no notice, to then be housed in makeshift conditions evocative of internment. As an ally of the US we should make it known that this is not acceptable.
