SIERRA MADRE PARADE CONTINUES


SCHIFF STATEMENT ON VISIT TO FACILITY 
HOUSING CHILDREN FROM MIGRANT FAMILIES


Washington, DC – Today, Rep. Adam Schiff 
(D-Burbank) released the following statement after 
touring a shelter facility in Fullerton, California 
that is housing children from migrant families that 
have been separated at the border: 

 “These kids have everything but what they need 
– their parents. The staff is caring, the facilities 
were clean, but there is no way to make up for 
the trauma of a child being separated from their 
parent. Our top priority should be reuniting these 
kids with their parents as soon as possible. Of the 
sixteen kids in the shelter who had been separated 
from their parents, most had been in the facility for 
weeks. The parents of two of them had already been 
deported. HHS has identified all of the parents, but 
two kids had yet to speak to their parent, because 
the detention centers are too disorganized. 

 “This is a completely manmade disaster. It is the 
result of a President who willed the separation to 
happen, an Attorney General who was happy to 
carry it out, and a GOP Congress unwilling to do 
anything about it. We must end this separation 
immediately and make sure it never happens 
again.” 

 Schiff discussed his visit to the facility in a 
Facebook live video. (https://www.facebook.com/
