John xxxxxx, this administration—with the support of Sen. Joni Ernst—is violating international asylum law, committing human rights abuses, and violating our own due process laws. We must end private detention centers. No one should profit from detaining asylum seekers. The centers also lack oversight.
We must immediately advocate for citizenship for DACA and TPS recipients, reinstate DACA, expand protections and pathways to citizenship for families and end family separation. Detention should be reserved for those who have committed violent crimes. And, we must hold ICE and CPB agents accountable for human rights violations.
These reasons, and the stories I heard at the border, are why immigration reform is one of my key campaign issues. We have to flip the Senate and reverse the damage this administration has done.
