Ed Markey: “That is your essential concern, to protect the health and well-being of families in our country?”

While this news is deeply welcomed, it is long overdue. It is a tragedy that it took Robert’s near-death condition for his case to receive the attention that it required for his release to be negotiated.

Airline crew members and passengers have the right to breathe safe, clean air, on the ground and in the air.

I am praying for Robert and his family today.

I am also seeking information related to ICE’s harmful, nontransparent operation of the Intensive Supervision Appearance Program (“ISAP”)—an alternative to detention program—in the Commonwealth.
