Stop Raiding Communities and Release North Carolina Refugee Kids

Department of Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson

Young refugees around the country have become the target of terrifying raids. In North Carolina, nine children have been arrested already this year, some on their way to school, and placed in detention centers hundreds of miles from their families.

If deported, many of these kids could be in danger of being murdered by gangs.

Sign the petition to tell Department of Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson to return the North Carolina refugee children to their families and stop these raids that are terrorizing communities.

I urge you to take action and release the North Carolina teenagers who are currently be detained by DHS and return them to their families. Most of these children came to the United State to flee gang violence and have no criminal record. I also call on you to end the ongoing practice of immigration raids that are terrorizing families and communities.
