Asylum seekers fleeing horrific violence deserve better than indefinite detention in the United States. They deserve compassion, fairness, and the opportunity to make their case. I joined my colleagues to express my disgust with this policy & demanded an immediate reversal.https://twitter.com/AILANational/status/1128783881128353792 …

Members of Congress, led by @RepDarrenSoto and @RepCardenas, sent a letter to AG Barr calling for the reversal of the April 16 Matter of M-S- decision which will leave asylum seekers behind bars without option for bond. Read the letter here: http://ow.ly/Xtp230oKbdx pic.twitter.com/B0zn3TWJjr

  Yeah no. They are per 8 U.S.C. § 1182 inadmissible aliens and obvious flight risks. DOJ data shows the majority of Defensive asylum requests are denied and ICE has testified few of those applicants voluntarily depart once ordered to do so.

  Why are we not hearing about this "horrific violence" on the news. Maybe it's just an excuse to use our asylum laws to get a foothold inside our borders.
