Gottheimer Calls for End to Family Separation Policy

GLEN ROCK, N.J. — Congressman Josh Gottheimer released the following statement calling for an end to the family separation policy:

“We live in the greatest country in the world, and we cannot sit idly by as children are being torn from their parents’ arms. I join voices on both sides of the aisle in calling for an end to this practice, which doesn’t benefit our national security and goes against our shared Jersey Values — and our American Values. I will keep fighting to achieve a bipartisan solution that protects our borders without ripping families apart and lives up to our ideals as Americans.”
