There are 2 immigrant family detention centers close to sxsw: Karnes and Dilly. Will sxsw's actions help the Trump administration fill them?

When sxsw says it wants the Trump administration to know it takes visa issues seriously, does it support the detention of Daniela Vargas?

Daniela Vargas is the 22-year-old DACA recipient who did a press conference and was then arrested by ICE. She's in detention in Louisiana.

Vargas's lawyers say Trump administration will deport her without a hearing because she overstated her visitor's visa waiver.

That's what "taking visa issues seriously" means: immediate deportation. This is the line in the sand that sxsw is very consciously drawing.
