I am writing to express my deep outrage and horror at the ongoing human rights violations taking place in ICE detention facilities across the United States. Immigrants, many of them asylum seekers—are being kidnapped, disappeared, and held in what survivors themselves describe as concentration camps.
These are not just bureaucratic failures or isolated incidents. People are being denied access to legal counsel, transferred without notice, and held in overcrowded, inhumane conditions that amount to torture. People, HUMANS, are dying. This is happening right now, in our country, under our watch.
We’ve seen this before in history. We said “never again.” How can we allow this now?
I demand that you:
1. Call for an immediate investigation into the conditions and practices at ICE detention facilities.
2. Support legislation that ensures due process, transparency, and oversight of immigration enforcement.
3. Push for the release of detained individuals—especially women and children—who pose no risk and are being unlawfully held.
4. End contracts with private detention centers that profit from this cruelty.
This is not a partisan issue. This is a moral and human rights crisis. I refuse to live in a country that disappears people into death camps. I urge you to take swift and decisive action to shut these facilities down and restore dignity and justice to our immigration system.
