Lawmakers lead bicameral bill to protect migrant children in United States\u2019 care<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Washington, D.C. \u2013 Today, Oregon\u2019s U.S. Senator Jeff Merkley and U.S. Congresswoman Sydney Kamlager-Dove (CA-37) led a bicameral effort to establish strong federal safeguards for unaccompanied and accompanied children throughout every stage of our immigration system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

El Ley de bienvenida segura para ni\u00f1os<\/em> responds to the Trump Administration\u2019s escalating attacks on vulnerable migrant children, including ramping up cruel family separations<\/a> y deportations of unaccompanied minors<\/a>. The bill strengthens comprehensive child welfare protections and establishes guidelines and best practices for better care for these vulnerable children.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cTrump\u2019s total disregard for the legal process directly threatens the safety of vulnerable migrant children, which is just plain wrong under any moral code,\u201d<\/strong> dijo Merkley. \u201cLike during his first administration, Trump\u2019s inhumane detention policies are traumatizing kids and families fleeing persecution\u2014inflicting lasting harm and trauma. We must shine a light on these dangerous, cruel policies, and Congress must pass our Ley de bienvenida segura para ni\u00f1os<\/em> to keep these kids safe.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

\n

“The immigration system for children is a moral disgrace. From ICE raids at schools to children being ripped away from their families, the inhumanity of the Trump Administration\u2019s immigration policies is appalling. Clearly, the system is ill-equipped to protect children and the absence of safeguards for children is a significant policy failure,\u201d<\/strong> said Kamlager-Dove. “That\u2019s why I am proud to partner with Senator Merkley to introduce the Ley de bienvenida segura para ni\u00f1os<\/em>, comprehensive legislation designed to ensure that every step of the immigration process prioritizes the welfare of children. Immigrant children should not bear the consequences of our broken immigration system.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

In addition to Merkley and Kamlager-Dove, the Ley de bienvenida segura para ni\u00f1os<\/em>\u00a0is cosponsored by U.S. Senators Dick Durbin (D-IL), Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI), Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY), Peter Welch (D-VT), Richard Blumenthal (D-CT), Ron Wyden (D-OR), Bernie Sanders (I-VT), Mazie Hirono (D-HI), Elizabeth Warren (D-MA), Brian Schatz (D-HI), Amy Klobuchar (D-MN), Tina Smith (D-MN), Jacky Rosen (D-NV), Edward J. Markey (D-MA), Tammy Duckworth (D-IL), Martin Heinrich (D-NM), and Michael Bennet (D-CO), and U.S. Representatives Mike Quigley (IL-05) and Henry C. \u201cHank\u201d Johnson, Jr. (GA-04).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    El\u00a0Ley de bienvenida segura para ni\u00f1os<\/em>\u00a0is supported by 100+<\/a> experts, advocates, and organizations representing migrant children in all stages of our immigration system, including the Young Center for Immigrant Children\u2019s Rights and National Center for Youth Law.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    “Every child deserves safety, dignity, and care\u2014not detention,\u201d<\/strong> said Mina Dixon Davis, Senior Policy Analyst at the Young Center for Immigrant Children\u2019s Rights. We hear children\u2019s stories\u2014the fear, the loneliness, the lasting harm\u2014and we know it doesn\u2019t have to be this way. The Ley de bienvenida segura para ni\u00f1os<\/em> gives Congress the chance to end these cruel practices and put children\u2019s safety and dignity first. Lawmakers must act now to ensure that every child is treated as a child\u2014with care, compassion, and hope for the future.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    “We have interviewed children in federal immigration custody for decades, and their harrowing accounts make one thing clear: federal law was never designed with children in mind, and children pay the painful price for that gap every day. Basic questions about how a child should be housed, cared for, and released have been left to court orders and agency discretion for far too long. The Children’s Safe Welcome Act<\/em> finally answers those questions in statute,”<\/strong> said Melissa Adamson, Senior Attorney at the National Center for Youth Law. “Today, as the Administration pursues an unprecedented campaign to decimate basic legal protections for children, leaving them indefinitely detained and without the protection of legal counsel, this legislation has never been more critical.”<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
