Trump Signs Executive Order To Keep Illegal Immigrant Families Together

President Donald Trump has signed an executive order to keep undocumented immigrant parents and kids together.

“We’re signing an executive order. I consider it to be a very important executive order. It’s about keeping families together, while at the same time being sure we have a very powerful, very strong border,” Trump said.

Trump came under intense pressure from across the political spectrum and from religious, political and world leaders to halt the separations. And just like any leader that listens to the people, he delivered.

The President said that while he believes parents and children should be together, he isn’t backing down.

“The border is just as tough. But we do want to keep families together,” Trump said in the Oval Office.

“We are keeping the family together.”

Pres. Trump signs executive order he says will address problem of family separation at the border while maintaining aggressive border security.

Earlier Wednesday after a frenzied morning in which he met with Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen and other key officials, Trump first flagged his reversal saying, “I’ll be doing something that’s somewhat preemptive and ultimately will be matched by legislation I’m sure.”

However, as usual, the extreme leftists aren’t happy with the president’s decision proving yet again their only agenda is to resist Trump on anything and everything. Go figure.

This Executive Order doesn’t fix the crisis. Indefinitely detaining children with their families in camps is inhumane and will not make us safe.

Can the next @POTUS please sign an executive order or Congress pass legislation removing the reference to human beings as “illegal aliens” from government documents?

It sickens me reading and hearing humans officially referred to as aliens.

As far as I can tell, whatever the president signs today will not end the so called “zero-tolerance” policy that is flooding the system with criminal prosecutions of desperate people who are overwhelmingly seeking asylum.
