Smucker Statement on Family Separation at Border

Statement

U.S. Rep. Lloyd Smucker (PA-16) released the following statement on social media:

"Reading reports of what's happening at our border and evaluating current policy, you can't help but have an emotional response. Like all of us, and as a father, I believe families should remain together whenever possible. But our immigration system is broken, and currently allows for families to be separated. Congress should address this issue, and the first step is having all the facts. That's why I'm contacting Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen to get more information from her about how Congress can prevent separating families while ensuring a strong and secure border."
