Beginning...
● Brainstormed a demand we would want to create a
change in.
● We decided to have a topic of immigration but try to create
a change to Trump’s “Zero Tolerance Policy”
● Contacted California Immigrant Policy Center
Issue/Topic

● Our Issue that we wanted to create change in is

immigration, specifically Trump’s Zero Tolerance Policy.

● Trump’s Zero Tolerance policy says that any person who

crosses the border illegally is immediately considered a
criminal.
Facts & Background
● Immigrants who cross the border illegally face civil
penalties for illegal presence in the United States, and
they face criminal penalties for having entered the country
illegally (https://fas.org/sgp/crs/homesec/R45266.pdf)
● Families and children are separated at the border and if
not they are eventually separated
Purpose

● To bring light to this topic that many people may not know about

● Make change within our community, state, and possibly even nation

● Give knowledge to the new generation living in this new world
