We petition the Obama Administration to issue an Executive Order immediately halting deportations. They have become a significant aspect of America's unofficial, escalating war on poor and displaced people who have no meaningful legal status anywhere. We make this petition out of deep concern for those who live in constant fear of being taken from families without warning, for the irreparable, traumatizing effect unceasing fear and deportations necessarily cause, and because the record-high deportations of the first Obama administration is a recognizable, gross human rights violation. This is a humanitarian crisis affecting not only undocumented migrants, but their US citizen spouses, US born children, and other loved ones. Thank you for considering our petition.
