Andre Carson: “I would like to use this opportunity to again voice my support to increase funding at the SEC.”

I am also calling for accountability of any officials whose actions or failure to act contributed to these deaths and injuries.

Today, I am calling for immediate intervention and a thorough, transparent investigation into injuries and deaths at Miami Correctional.

As Members of Congress, we have a duty to protect Americans reporting abroad.
