Amnesty International’s New Immigration Campaign Couldn’t Be More Misleading

Amnesty International USA’s recent immigration campaign in Florida features a series of billboards that negatively highlight the Department of Health and Human Services’ (HHS) Homestead Emergency Care Shelter. Its ads are riddled with demagoguery and create distorted images for Floridians, despite the fact that the shelter saved thousands of minors from across the world.

Placing the ads throughout Florida in conjunction with the United Nation’s World Children’s Day earlier this week, the billboards read, “You Are Now 7 Miles Away From Where Kids Are Locked Up,” “We Don’t Believe in Locking Up Children,” and “Florida: Amusement Parks. Beaches. Detained Children.”
