Thank you @pressley.house.gov for standing up to #ProtectFamilies
Under Trump, masked agents are ripping kids from their parents, pepper spraying moms, & kidnapping teachers from classrooms.

This is horrifying and unacceptable.

Many families will withdraw from the programs for which they’re eligible for—programs that help feed, house and keep them healthy. This means more kids in America will be at risk of hunger, of losing stable housing, of getting sick.
