Helping Kids in Concentration Camps

[personal profile] gingicat asked in the comments of the weekly check in post "What can we do directly to help the children in the concentration camps?"

It's far from feeling satisfactory, but here is what I've found via this thread on Twitter which seems to be sourcing the NYT article on the camps: ‘There Is a Stench’: No Soap and Overcrowding in Detention Centers for Migrant Children

It boils down to
1. Call your Senators and Congresspeople to demand congressional hearings.
2. Financially support non-profits on the ground in Texas

Al Otro Lado
Asylum Seeker Advocacy Project
International Refugee Asylum Project

I did make the ladies in my house and senate-critter's offices cry again, unfortunately.

They're getting really used to me calling at this point. Unfortunately I have to deal with Cindy Hyde-Smith, so she needs to go.
