Tomorrow is the deadline for ICE to free the children in its detention facilities. The government is threatening #FamilySeparation, again, even though ICE has the authority to free children with their parents so they can pursue protection outside of detention. #FreeTheFamilies

Here's what you can do to raise your voice and help prevent further #FamilySeparation & trauma:
1. Use #FreeTheFamilies and demand ICE release all children WITH their families immediately. Tag @ICEgov.
2. Sign this petition from @fams2gether: https://actionnetwork.org/petitions/tell-ice-freethefamilies

Immigrant families in detention have until Friday to make a difficult decision

Hundreds of immigrant families in US Immigration and Customs Enforcement custody may have to decide by the end of this week whether they'll separate from their children or stay in detention together.
