Actors Rosario Dawson and Julianne Moore have urged voters to elect Democrats to combat the Trump administrations immigration policies.
In a video made in partnership with We Stand United, Dawson has said that the Trump administration violated international law by detaining migrants at the border who were legally seeking asylum. Moore said the administration created a humanitarian crisis by separating the families and putting children in cages, reported variety.com.
The video also features quotes from a volunteer and a pregnant migrant, who says she walked from town to town until she was grabbed by immigration. Another refugee explains that he and his family left Honduras because of the gang violence and "suffering".
Moore urged people to vote for Democrats in the November 6 midterm elections to end the humanitarian crisis at the border.
