      Sponsors are willing to take children in, but now they themselves are being deported:
      https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2018/sep/21/ice-arrests-undocumented-immigrants-sponsoring-migrant-children

      Meanwhile, refugees fleeing violence -- who have been LEGAL candidates for asylum -- are now being turned back:
      https://www.nytimes.com/2018/06/11/us/politics/sessions-domestic-violence-asylum.html

      Now DHS has submitted a new rule that would deny green cards to LEGAL immigrants:

      The National Immigration Law Center will provide guidance once the rule opens to public comments. This thread has more info:

      Here's a history of how US involvement in Latin America helped cause this crisis:

      @BarbarainBham, I know that HHS is getting $13.3 Million ... but I think NIH got $3 BILLION more than they requested approved in their last budget. When I was last in DC, all of the Congress people threw that at us when we requested more money for lung cancer. (It doesn't seem to matter how much money they get, NIH / National Cancer Institute throws piddly amounts (per death) at lung cancer so that argument is very weak for my own case. They all say they can't / won't tell the "experts" at NIH HOW to spend the dollars they get. Maybe they shouldn't be so trusting!!!!!

      LWC, maybe it would help to research and lobby the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute and the National Cancer Institute in Bethesda. The amount and ratio of funding NHLBI receives for all lung diseases, including cancer, could be something to compare to NCI's amount received and dedicated to lung cancer. You could call and ask where to direct a letter advocating more lung cancer research. As you know, there are also private sources for research money.

      Ejourneys, everyone forgets that the more people who are in this country, the more people we have to divide available government funds with (welfare and any other funds). The gov't cost for each illegal immigrant is very high, although my brain doesn't remember the figure. It was also announced recently that we have about twice as many illegals as previously thought.
