SAN DIEGO, California — Thousands marched in protest in U.S.-Mexico border city of San Diego on Saturday, raising slogans against the Trump administration’s policy of separating children from immigrant parents caught crossing the border illegally.
Although President Donald Trump signed an executive order Wednesday to end the separations after enormous political pressure and public outrage, protesters gathered in front of the Civic Center in downtown to march to the local office of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
Holding banners and signs that read “Families belong together,” “Kids need their parents,” “Breaking families is cruel child abuse” and “America stop inflicting trauma on innocent children,” they shouted slogans against the Trump administration’s immigration policy.
“Say it loud, say it clear, immigrants are welcome here,” the crowd chanted repeatedly.
Many children took part in the nearly 5,000-strong rally with their parents. Xinhua
