Rep. Taylor Statement On Family Separation At The Border

Statement

Representative Scott Taylor (VA-02) released the following statement concerning the Department of Homeland Security's enforcement of President Trump's immigration policy:

"The issue at the border is a call to action for Congress. We have a responsibility to come together and forge a bipartisan solution that is decent, humane, and respects our rule of law. I have every confidence that the thousands of men and women who are honorably serving at our border are doing everything they can to uphold the law while attempting to keep families together. Congress should act immediately and appropriate additional funds for family shelters, reevaluate the Flores Consent Decree, and give greater discretionary authority to the administrative judges that are deciding the fate of these immigrant families. I believe this will better enable us to navigate this complex issue while enforcing our laws and keeping families intact."
