THANK YOU THANK YOU MISTER CHAIR
MEMBERS OF THE COMMITTEE.
STR TWENTY NINE CALLS UPON THE
UNITED STATES CONGRESS TO ISSUE
A FORMAL APOLOGY TO ALL
IMMIGRANT DETAINEES WHO HAVE
BEEN FORCIBLY SEPARATED FROM THE
PARENTS.
THE RESULT OF OUR BORDER
POLICIES FOLLOWING THE EXECUTIVE
ORDER ISSUED BY PRESIDENT TRUMP
IN JANUARY TWENTY SEVENTEEN AND
A MEMO BY THE TOURNEY GENERAL
JEFF SESSIONS IN APRIL THIS YEAR
THE UNITED STATES HAS
INSTITUTED.
IT'S CALLED A ZERO TOLERANCE
POLICY REGARD TO IMMIGRANT
VIOLATIONS.
HOWEVER THIS AND PRESENT IN
HUMANE POLICY HAS LED DIRECTLY
LEAD TO THE FORCIBLE SEPARATION
OF OVER. TWENTY FIVE HUNDRED
IMMIGRANT INFANTS AND CHILDREN
OR FROM THEIR PARENTS TO REMAIN
IN CUSTODY WHILE AWAITING TRIAL.
WELL SUPPORTERS OF THE POLICY OF
CLAIM THAT'S MERELY ENFORCEMENT
OF EXISTING LAW LIKE TO POINT
OUT THAT UNITED NATIONS HUMAN
RIGHTS OFFICE.
THE HIGH COMMISSIONER HAS STATED
THAT FAMILY SEPARATION
THEMSELVES SERIOUS VIOLATIONS OF
THE RIGHTS OF THE CHILD.
ALSO MAKE NOTE THAT THE
PRESIDENT AMERICAN CAN BE
PEDIATRICS HAS PUBLICLY STATED
THAT THIS THAT THIS IS
GOVERNMENT SANCTIONED CHILD
ABUSE.
SO EVEN THOUGH THE UNITED STATES
IS THE ONLY MEMBER STATE NOT TO
HAVE RATIFIED THE CONVENTION THE
RIGHTS OF THE CHILD THE UNITED
NATIONS HAS STATED THAT SINCE WE
SIGNED.
THAT SINCE WE TIED AN
INTERNATIONAL COURT WE DO HAVE
SOME LEGAL OBLIGATIONS TO
CHILDREN A CUSTODY.
ASIDE FROM THE INHERENT CRUELTY
OF SEPARATING CHILDREN FROM
THEIR FAMILIES THERE'S ALSO
CONSIDERABLE RESEARCH SHOWING
THEIR SIGNIFICANT PROLONGED
HEALTH RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH
HIGH LEVELS OF STRESS AND
CHILDHOOD.
IF YOU ARE TWENTY NINE FIRST
SEEKS TO HIGHLIGHT THE
OVERWHELMING CONSENSUS AMONG
RESEARCHERS THAT PROLONGED
EXPOSURE TO TOXIC STRESS FX
SHORT AND LONG TERM HEALTH.
WHILE MOST OF US ARE LIKELY
WHERE THE POTENTIAL MENTAL
HEALTH EFFECTS SUCH AS
POSTTRAUMATIC STRESS DISORDER.
THERE ALSO LONG TERM SERIOUS
PHYSICAL HARMS ASSOCIATED WITH
EXCESSIVE CHILDHOOD STRESS IN
FACT ON GOINGS AND EXPOSURE TO
STRESS CAN ACTUALLY DISRUPT THE
FORMATION OF THE CHILD'S BRAIN
ARCHITECTURE.
AND CAN ALSO CONTRIBUTE TO THE
LATER DEVELOPMENT OF CHRONIC
CONDITIONS SUCH AS
CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASE.
SECOND S. YOU ARE TWENTY NINE
CALLS UPON THE UNITED STATES
CONGRESS TO FORMALLY APOLOGIZE
NOT ONLY FOR THE SEPARATION
FAMILIES BUT ALSO FOR TO PROLONG
INCREASED HEALTH RISKS
ASSOCIATED WITH THE IMAGE
UNIMAGINABLE STRESS.
EXPERIENCED BY THOSE WHO CAN
SEPARATE FROM THEIR FAMILIES.
NOW THE UNITED STATES HAS BEEN A
LEADER AND SETTING STANDARDS FOR
HUMAN RIGHTS AND THE WORLD AND
THAT WE HAVE --
ALWAYS SAID THAT WE ARE
EXCEPTIONAL IN OUR OUR
DIPLOMATIC RELATIONS IN TERMS OF
UPHOLDING THIS HIGHER STANDARD
IN FACT BECAUSE OF THAT --
THE UNITED STATES ALSO I ISSUED
FORMAL APOLOGIES FOR OUR PAST --
HUMAN RIGHTS VIOLATIONS
CERTAINLY WE ARE NOT PERFECT BUT
WE RECOGNIZE OUR HEIRS --
AT SOME OF THE EXAMPLES INCLUDE
--
RONALD REAGAN'S THAT ARE
NINETEEN EIGHTY EIGHT APOLOGY
FOR THE INTERNMENT OF JAPANESE
CITIZENS DURING WORLD WAR.
TWO AND THE CLINTON'S
ADMINISTRATION'S NINETEEN NINETY
SOME APOLOGY FOR THAT TUSKEGEE
EXPERIMENTS CONDUCTED.
IN THE NINETEEN FORTIES THROUGH
THE SEVENTIES.
NOW WHILE THESE APOLOGIES I CAME
DECADES AFTER VIOLATIONS TAKING
PLACE THERE'S NO REASON FOR US
TO HAVE TO WAIT.
WHY SHOULD WE WAIT TO APOLOGIZE
TO CHILDREN WHO'VE BEEN FORCIBLY
REMOVED FROM THEIR FAMILIES?
WE NOTE WE MADE A MISTAKE AND
THIS IS WRONG.
SO WHAT THAT YOU ARE TWENTY NINE
WE ASK CONGRESS APOLOGIZE NOW
FOR THE HARMS THOSE PRET BOTH
PRESENT AN ON GOING BECAUSE BY.

SEPARATING CHILDREN FROM THEIR
FAMILIES AT THE BORDER I SPECT

THIS TIME FRAME IS NOT REALISTIC
FOR MANY SEXUAL ASSAULT
SURVIVORS WHO ARE RECOVERING
FROM THE PHYSICAL AND EMOTIONAL
TRAUMA OF A SEXUAL ASSAULT.
UNDER THIS BILL PLAINTIFFS WOULD
HAVE TEN YEARS FROM THE DATE OF

GREAT STRIDES IN CALIFORNIA IN
THE LAST FEW YEARS ADDRESSING
SEXUAL ASSAULT SUPPORTING
SURVIVORS?
THIS IS THE NEXT GOOD STEP THE
STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS HAS BEEN
ELIMINATED FOR CRIMINAL
PROSECUTION.
AND WE HAVE DEVELOPED A SEXUAL
ASSAULT SURVIVOR RIGHTS CARDS
NOW -- THE
SEXUAL ASSAULT SURVIVOR RIGHTS
CARDS ARE MANDATED BY ALL
MEDICAL PROFESSIONALS AND LAW
ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES TO PROVIDE
EVERYONE THAT PRESENTS WITH A
COMPLAINT OF SEXUAL ASSAULT
WHETHER THEY WANT TO REPORT OR
NOT [inaudible]
WITHIN MINUTES [inaudible]
RIGHTS CARD.
IS MANDATED THAT WE INFORM THE
PATIENT.
THAT.
IF SHOULD THEY HAVE EVIDENCE
COLLECTED IT WILL BE SENT TO A
LAB FOR PROCESSING WITHIN TWENTY
DAYS.
IT ALSO STATES THAT THE LAB HAS
TWENTY FOUR MONTHS. TO PROCESS
THE EVIDENCE WHICH MEANS.
THE STATUTE PERSONAL CIVIL
REMEDY HAS RUN OUT BEFORE THE
PATIENT IS.
EVEN KNOWS THE RESULTS OF THE
EVIDENCE THAT WE HAVE COLLECTED
FROM THEIR OWN BODY --
MOST PATIENTS DON'T EVEN REAL
AYE.
AYE MINURSO THERE MY PATIENTS
THEIR SURVIVORS IN AND VICTIMS
SO.
FORGIVE ME WHEN I SAY PATIENT UP
MAYES MOST PATIENTS AREN'T EVEN
AWARE OF THE AVAILABILITY OF
CIVIL REMEDIES FOR THE HAVE LONG
LASTING IN LIFE TIME.
A FAX OF SEXUAL ASSAULTS AND
STUDIES HAVE SHOWN THAT THE
AVERAGE SEXUAL ASSAULT COSTS
ABOUT A HUNDRED AND TWENTY TWO
THOUSAND DOLLARS PER VICTIM.
OVER A LIFETIME THEY ARE MORE
LIKELY TO SMOKE MORE LIKELY TO
DRINK MORE LIKELY TO BE OBESE
MORE LIKELY TO HAVE LIFETIME
MEDICAL PROBLEMS.
AND AYE INTERESTINGLY ENOUGH
LESS LIKELY TO WEAR SEAT BELTS
IT'S A REALLY INTERESTING STUDY
--
THESE PATIENTS NEED.
SUPPORT OVER A LIFETIME TWO
YEARS.
ISN'T EVEN ENOUGH TIME FOR A
CRIMINAL TRIAL TO MAKE ITS WAY
THROUGH BEFORE THEY CAN DO IT
PATIENTS ARE.
SURVIVORS DON'T HAVE THE
CAPACITY MOST DON'T HAVE THE
CAPACITY TO EVEN CONSIDER A
CIVIL TRIAL WHILE THEY'RE
FOCUSING.
ON SURVIVING THROUGH A CRIMINAL
TRIAL AND JUST RECOVERING.
I'D LIKE TO TELL YOU IF YOU'LL
