Request USA humanise detention centres & reunite detained children with families

Petition Details

Around 15,000 migrant children were detained in USA, six died under custody. There is evidence that kids are kept in inhumane conditions, dirty, cold, hungry. Many including babies and toddlers are not accompanied by a family member. This is against the UN Child rights thus an international matter.

"...migrant detention centers as “concentration camps” was the correct nomenclature for holding rooms in which 41 detainees live in a cell built for eight. The week ended with heinous reports of the conditions at said camps, where undocumented migrant children are being held away from their families in conditions “worse than jail"..."Stieb NY Intelligencer '19
