"Congress should be strengthening protections for unaccompanied children, not dismantling them. We urge the Senate to reject this bill. As I tell my own children all the time, and as lawmakers well know, two wrongs do not make a right.”

"This legislation seeks to exploit the tragic & senseless murder of a young woman to advance the punishment of other children & youth who are wholly unrelated to this tragedy. The bill, as written, would put kids at risk of lasting physical & psychological harm" - Executive Director Shaina Aber.

This gives us a better idea of how many cases each legal representative would need to take on to ensure everyone arrested would have representation.

For example, in Alabama each legal representative would have to take on 198 cases to provide representation to those arrested in the last 5 months.
