What the petition asks
We call on Parliament to use the opportunity of President Trump's visit to the UK to condemn in the strongest terms the imprisonment of children and minors, and the separation of families at the US-Mexico border. We ask that Parliament pass a motion which makes clear our opposition to this policy.
