US Rep, John Lewis publicly called for the Trump Administration to bring an end to the separation of children from their families at US borders on Wednesday. “Our nation is mourning. Our nation is crying out to save our little children. Save our babies,” Lewis said. “History will not be kind to us as a nation and as a people if we continue to go down this road. We must stop the madness and stop it now.”
