Immigration  - We would like to leverage 

Trump’s “Zero Tolerance” Policy 
so that everyone who crosses the 
Policy -  border shouldn’t be charged with 
criminal proceedings. Instead of 

Trump’s Zero  criminal charges we propose, an 

alternative , a system where 

Policy  
immigrants are not immediately 
charged.  

Background Info 

- The Zero Tolerance Policy was 

made by the Trump’s 
administration. 
- It says Everyone who has entered 
the U.S. Illegally, will be criminally 
prosecuted. 
- “​Has the effect of separating 
parents from their children when 
they enter the country together.”
