Trump Ends Program to Protect Central American Kids From Deportation
Arizona Public Media ^ | August 21, 2017 | by Nancy Montoya

It’s called the Central American Minors Parole, or CAM. It was in response in 2014 to a wave of children fleeing gang violence in Central America and seeking asylum in the U.S.

The Obama administration gave them a two-year reprieve from deportation to prepare their amnesty cases, as long as they had at least one parent living in the U.S. legally.

Under the direction of the Trump administration, Homeland Security abruptly canceled the program last Wednesday. That means almost 3,000 children between the ages of 11 and 17 who were admitted under CAM are now subject to deportation.

Opponents of CAM say offering asylum if a child can somehow get to our border is encouraging them to make the dangerous journey alone.

This program was explicitly designed to encourage the invasion of C Americans - kids first, families next as a Democrat GOTV strategy.

"It was in response in 2014 to a wave of children fleeing gang violence in Central America and seeking asylum in the U.S."

They fled gang violence down there to get into gang violence up here?

He just cut off the magnet. When you reward something, you get more of it. These weren't "kids" anyway. Most were teenage or older males. It was just another scam.

And groups like Church World Service (CWS) and Catholic Migration and Refugee Services (MRS) got millions to help resettle them. Follow the money.
