Thousands of protestors to hit the streets demanding family reunification

• The protests will be drawing not only seasoned demonstrators and activists, but also parents who felt "compelled to show up after heart-wrenching accounts" of family separation, per the AP.
• Jess Morales Rocketto, Political director at the National Domestic Workers Alliance, told the AP: "Honestly, I am blown away. I have literally never seen Americans show up for immigrants like this."
• They're being funded by various organizations like the ACLU, the National Domestic Workers Alliance, MoveOn.org, and The Leadership Conference, the AP reports.

"We appreciate that these individuals have expressed an interest in and concern with the critical issue of securing our nation's borders and enforcing our immigration laws. As we have indicated before, the department is disappointed and frustrated by our nation's disastrous immigration laws and supports action."
