After ICE illegally locked me out last week, I finally got into the Adelanto ICE facility. What I saw was horrifying: LA workers held in filthy, inhumane conditions, cut off from lawyers, family, and basic necessities.
@RepLindaSanchez, @RepMarkTakano, @RepKamlagerDove, @RepLuzRivas, and I saw it firsthand and we will be demanding answers and accountability from ICE.
Masked ICE Nazis kidnap man going to immigration court in NYC….how do they expect people to do right thing when they snatch you when you show up for court hearings
Obviously the message this sends to immigrants who are trying to play by the rules and show up for checkins and for hearings is that they should not do that any more, that they should hide instead. It encourages less respect for our immigration system, not more.

"The Mexicans there sustain the economy of the United States -- in the countryside, in services, everywhere!"
