Celebrities and immigration activists are launching a “hunger strike” aimed at forcing the Trump Administration to reunite around 2,400 illegal immigrant children with their parents and end a “zero tolerance” immigration policy which mandates that immigration enforcement officials bring criminal charges against undocumented migrants who break American immigration law.
The protest, organized by the Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights center, kicked off on Saturday in front of a McAllen, Texas, immigrant processing center, and organizers claim they will keep up the fast in front of the facility for 24 days. Several high-profile celebrities, like Alec Baldwin and Martin Sheen, have pledged their support, along with members of the Kennedy family.
