“At Delaney Hall on Monday, she said she spoke to a 13-year-old girl whose father is being held in the facility,” NJ.com reports. “The girl told Ms. Rachel that her father has been in the United States for 20 years and works as a truck driver. She told Ms. Rachel she misses him.”

”Her dad has to miss her graduation, their birthdays,“ Ms. Rachel wrote in her Instagram post. ”It makes no sense that their family has been ripped apart. Why are we traumatizing kids?
“I will always stand with these families.”

Ms. Rachel visited Delaney Hall to support children separated from their detained parents.
Their dad has been in the U.S. 20 yrs & is a truck driver. Both children lit up talking about him & their Friday night movie nights with lots of snacks! “He’s the one who makes us all laugh” she shared. “He’s a wonderful father.”
