I REALLY DO CARE, DO U?
700+ nationwide protests planned June 30th KEEP FAMILIES TOGETHER. Spread the word and RESIST....IT WORKS!
Find an event near you, donate, make phone calls and write to your reps, sign the petition. THANKS!!!!

The executive order that Donald Trump signed today is not a solution to the crisis created by his administration; it keeps kids imprisoned indefinitely, and doesn't reunite thousands of separated families. But it does show the administration is reacting to public pressure, so we will continue to increase our pressure for justice at hundreds of events on Saturday, June 30, to say that families belong together.

emergency backpack (I live in CA) for my friend to wear as a poncho and I painted white letters on a green posterboard that says "I Really Do Care, Do U?" to wear as a placard over the silver blanket for my friend since she doesn't like carrying a heavy sign. I saw signs like that last weekend during another protest. They also want people to wear yellow bracelets since that is what the immigrants have to wear. They had 500 to give away but they ran out so I was glad I made my own. They look like this....
