Remember when the current administration put children in cages? Remember when QAnon made false theories about trafficking? The current admin makes children more vulnerable to the abuse they willingly carry out as well as trafficking.
First they locked children in cages, now they want to leave children all alone in perhaps the most vulnerable and consequential moments of their lives. Nope. Not on our watch. #NoChildAlone
