Take Action! Letter to President Trump concerning Border Troop Deployment
The Board of Directors of the Society for the Study of Social Problems (SSSP), wrote to President Trump to express deep concern and consternation over both the deployment of active duty troops to the U.S.-Mexico Border to counter a caravan of Central American migrants and the denial of asylum eligibility for refugees entering the country outside of an official port of entry. Both actions contribute to an already heightened climate of xenophobia in the United States and both raise questions about our adherence to the law, including international law, and commitment to human rights.
