Fact: A political row over child migrants into the U.S. caught fire in early June 2014 when leaked photographs showed children crushed together in a Texas holding facility while they awaited processing. Soon after, the government released figures showing that more than 52,000 unaccompanied children had reached the U.S. southern border between October 2013 and mid-June – more than double the number for the entire previous fiscal year. Four countries – El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras and Mexico – account for almost all of the unaccompanied minor cases. (Reuters) She Who Hears the Cries of the World, inspire state and federal agencies to do the right thing to help the children seeking refuge. Give patience, courage, and hope to their parents and relatives.
