After securing our borders, tending to the weak and the children are what separates a great country from an average or bad one.

Close to 5000 people are dead in Puerto Rico, some because the recovery efforts have been slower than they should be. We, as part of a great country, need to have a government that is decent and competent that will make sure the survivors are properly cared for and the territory put on a path forward.

Children of Illegal Immigrants have gone missing. The number is not quite clear but their welfare, since they are in our custody, should be our responsibility. Unlike the few in the MS-13 gangs, these are not "animals" to be discarded. Some of these children are four or younger. Most are probably fine but we, as a great country, need to ensure that all are safe and sound. It should not matter what nationality or ethnicity they are.

All life is sacred. This Administration should have the decency to recognize that and the competence to get the job done.

If they cannot, then we need an Administration in 2021 that is decent, competent, and willing to work to help the needy and vulnerable while moving the country forward.

Unfortunately, some of these people do not have the time to wait as an action is needed now. Please spread the word to help these people.
