Political Quotes

“We have seen and we have witnessed the brutality on the streets of America by ICE. We saw two Americans killed, and many people brutalized. Just the other day, in the San Francisco Airport, we saw a mother who was ripped away from her 9-year-old daughter. We saw that replayed in courthouses across the country, in neighborhoods, in cities across America. There is another brutality that most Americans have not gotten a chance to see that Congresswoman Dexter and I have witnessed, that only Members of Congress and a few others have had a chance to see. It is also a brutality by ICE. It is the way that children and families are treated at the Dilley trailer prison in Dilley, Texas. I have been there multiple times now, and I have seen the suffering of the young kids who will be traumatized for life. As you know, they have talked about worms in their food, about being separated from a parent. There are some there who have no clue why they are there. Dilley is unique in America in that I can't think of another place where you would imprison a 5-year-old boy like Liam Ramos who has committed no crime.”
