We saw children stuffed into crowded spaces. The people detained in these facilities lack access to basic necessities like toothpaste and access to sanitary supplies. There are few, if any, pediatricians. No child welfare professionals. No hope.
I refuse to stand by while this takes place on American soil. So I took action by placing holds on two individuals nominated to serve in administrative and policy roles at DHS until conditions in these facilities drastically improve.
The evidence is clear: conditions at these facilities have not improved, and until they do, I will not remove my holds on this Administration’s nominees.
Once we’ve taken the necessary steps to ensure these children are in safe and sanitary conditions, then we must take up the long-overdue task of reforming our long-term immigration policy.
We owe it to migrant children and families to reach an immediate solution. We owe it to our law enforcement to prevent this difficult situation from continuing. We must come together, and we must take action. Now.
Keep doing what you’re doing Senator. You’re making me proud to have supported you.
