Housing affordability doesn’t end with a rent check or a mortgage payment.

A toothache should never escalate into a fatal medical emergency, especially while someone is in government custody and entirely dependent on detention staff for access to care.

I’m calling on ICE to provide full transparency regarding this incident, including whether proper protocols were followed.

People who are simply asking for food, water, and medical care should not be met with force.
