.@ICEgov is detaining immigrant children in hotels for expedited removals.
— Joaquin Castro (@JoaquinCastrotx) July 25, 2020
No access to an attorney.
No due process.
Just fear and cruelty.
President Trump has used COVID-19 to effectively shutdown of the asylum system—this unlawful action is also happening in San Antonio. https://t.co/kPNGV3a5EP

BREAKING: Our attorney was aggressively rejected from trying to offer help to immigrant children illegally detained at a Hampton Inn in McAllen, TX. He and another of our staffer were violently shoved into the hotel elevator and were told they could not offer help. #FreeThemALL! https://t.co/xSOxHOViKp pic.twitter.com/MEp7UmK6Gv

My first story for @briarpatchmag. I looked at how Canada's Liberal government is building a new detention centre for migrants, including children, near Montreal—and the movement to stop its construction.
Proud of reporting on this largely ignored story.https://t.co/2IjoTWiEBo

CBP is trying to refute the toilet drinking story by saying their toilets have sinks.
The sink in the cell we visited wasn’t functional. Guards told these women,Cuban refugees 🇨🇺, they could drink out of the bowl.
This account has been corroborated by other members of Congress. https://t.co/VT99UGZ6Ex

⬇️ This. Corporate greed is at the heart of Trump's policy to cage children.
$250/day to house a migrant child at a standard HHS shelter.
$750/day charged by FOR PROFIT Caliburn International Corp. in Homestead.
Paid for by THE AMERICAN PEOPLE.

It’s pretty hard to view the indefinite detention of a 5-year old as anything other than inhumane. We are long past due for Congressional hearings to expose the full scope of this administration’s abuses. We must put an end to these concentration camps. https://t.co/duM4dpm6Bv

We are creating a whole generation of children who will remember what we did. They will remember we caged them like animals, ripped them away from their parents & pumped them with drugs to make them stop crying. No amount of apologies will make it better. https://t.co/DS6kl6RoPl

Dead-of-night transfer of immigrant kids to a "tent camp" in Texas. No schooling for them and limited legal access. Let's call these "tent camps" what they really are: Concentration Camps #KeepFamiliesTogether #AbolishICE #StoptheWarOnImmigrants https://t.co/UdxL5nlq41

Nooses have been found in ICE facilities of caged migrants. This is an emergency.
An agency that has systematically and repeatedly commits human rights abuses cannot be reformed – it must be abolished.
Child abuse is a bright red line. It should be for all of us. https://t.co/Gi2c9dvDWU

This is Mariee Juárez. She was 18-months-old when she entered ICE detention in Dilley, TX.
When she fell ill, ICE treated her with honey packets, vapor rub, and ibuprofen. They never hospitalized her—not with a 104 fever or after losing 20% of her body weight.#justiceformariee pic.twitter.com/p0sRnDPtc0

Dear @SecNielsen: You should read this article. Then you should resign.
This trauma would not have happened to the little girl but for the fact that your agency ripped her away from her parents and placed her in a facility without adequate supervision. https://t.co/X9kyPLjsOi
