Speak out now: Stop moving separated children to tent cities at the dead of night!

The Trump Administration just made their government-created health crisis even worse.

In addition to continuing to separate families at the border, news recently broke that kids are being moved to tent cities in the dead of night with even worse conditions than they were already subjected to.

These kids, already taken from their families and facing lifelong health effects, are rounded up and moved to giant tent facilities with no schooling and next to no available services. We cannot and will not stand by while the Trump Administration continues to disregard the lives and health of these kids.

There needs to be an end to this egregious and broken system. These kids' health is in grave and increasing danger every single day.

Right now, tell our Colorado senators, Cory Gardner and Michael Bennet, to stand up to the Trump Administration and demand an end to family separation and the health crisis they've created.

To whom it may concern: 

As your constituent and an American deeply concerned about children's health, I am writing to urge you to immediately intervene with the Department of Health and Human Services on behalf of the children who have been separated from their families at the border.

The administration has created a vast and worsening health crisis by separating children from their families and failing to reunite them. Recent news media reports now indicate that many children who have been housed in shelters are being moved to tent cities on the border in the middle of night. These facilities are not regulated to the same standards as shelters and children living there do not have access to educational instruction beyond workbooks that are not mandatory to complete. Moving these children to the tent cities on the border also lessens their access to legal council. Finally, the manner in which these children, who have already been traumatized by the initial separation from their families, in the middle of the night with only a few hours warning only further traumatizes them. These practices are creating years of mental and emotional trauma that will impact nearly every aspect of these kids' lives for years to come.

Please do everything in your power to intervene with HHS to ensure that these kids don't suffer further trauma.
