April 20, 2021-The drama between border security and those fleeing poverty, crime and corruption in Central and South America continues to play out at our southern border. Immigrants keep making the journey to the border even though the message from the United States government is not to come.  While entry policies have been mixed, many adults are currently being turned away while unaccompanied children are being allowed into United States custody to eventually seek asylum. It has been reported that parents are allowing their children to cross the border while they must remain behind in dangerous and unhealthy conditions. While the administration claims that conditions are getting better for the children, thousands of children who are separated from their families remain in custody in what has been reported as over-crowded holding cells and conditions.  To see a recent statement from the U.S. Department of Homeland Security: https://www.dhs.gov/news/2021/03/16/statement-homeland-security-secretary-alejandro-n-mayorkas-regarding-situation
