To quote Rolling Stone:
In August alone, the Trump administration laid out plans to make it more difficult for legal immigrants to use social services, eliminate limits on how long families can be detained at the border, and stop providing flu vaccines
to migrants held in border detention facilities The administration was
proud enough of these efforts to announce them publicly, but there was
one move so despicable that they apparently felt it would be best to
roll it out quietly.
On August 7th,
the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) ... eliminated a medical
deferred action program that allowed severely ill undocumented
immigrants and their families to remain in the United States to receive
potentially lifesaving treatment. The decision to axe the policy was not
announced publicly. Instead, families with pending applications were
notified through letters from immigration officials informing them they
have 33 days to leave the country or risk facing deportation.
Despicable and ugly don't do it justice. 33 freakin' days? Donald Trump, Stephen Miller, and anyone else involved in this horrific decision just bought themselves some really bad karma.
