Last week, ICE arrested and separated a father and son after a routine check-in. Six-year-old Yuanxin had just enrolled in the first grade at an elementary school in Astoria. Now he's in custody, alone. ICE won't say where. This cruelty serves no one. It must end.

Trans people: If your partner insults your appearance, mocks your efforts to transition, says they support you in one breath and then that you ruined their lives in the next, are embarrassed to be seen with you, or makes you feel like a burden, that's not your partner, that's your abuser.
