Just as *Brown v. Board* ruled segregation violatedthe 14th Amendment’s Equal Protection Clause, deporting U.S. citizen children of undocumented parents does the same. Children should not suffer for their parents' status. Both cases highlight the injustice of discrimination against innocent children

Legal immigrant children: U.S. citizen children of undocumented parents are eligible to receive SNAP benefits if the children meet the program's requirements. An undocumented parent may apply for SNAP on behalf of their eligible children.
