June 16th, 2018 To President Donald J. Trump and the People of the United States,
On Monday, May 7th, 2018, United States Attorney General Jeff Sessions announced that the Justice Department would begin prosecuting every person without documents who crossed into the United States along the Southwest border. This policy shift specifically impacts migrants traveling with children.
The “zero-tolerance” measure has already split up thousands of families, because children are not allowed in adult criminal jails. Until the policy shift, most families apprehended crossing the border had been released to await civil deportation hearings rather than held for criminal prosecution.
The children taken from their parents are being detained in concentration camps. Some of the children are caged in chain link cells with identification numbers on their chests. Others are living in tents in the Texas sun.
Beloved people of good will, there are sacred obligations of ethics and conscience from which we cannot and should not be released. There are burdens of humanity which we must bear, or else we renounce that same humanity entirely. The protection of children is one such sacred obligation.
As faith leaders, we, the undersigned, denounce and reject the current administration's policy of separating immigrating families and holding children in isolation from their adult support systems. We do not claim to speak for our denominations, individual organizations or houses of worship, or faith traditions, but we cannot remain silent, for the sake of our own hearts.
The practice of separating migrant families who lack documentation must end immediately. There must never again be internment camps, concentration camps, or forced detention camps by any other name on American soil or under American control. Migrant children must be immediately returned to their parents or guardians.
The current “zero-tolerance” policy is ethically and morally unconscionable, and we seek an end to both the policy itself and to its impact in the world.
We invite you to join us in our journey toward justice. Respectfully,
