Longer ICE detention and fuller facilities increase the profits of these corporations but may hurt the public. That makes good oversight all the more important. (17/ ) — PolitiTweet.org

Fifth, the Otay Mesa Detention Center is run by a for-profit contractor. As a Congressmember, I have a duty to make sure tax dollars are being spent appropriately. Detention should be used to increase public safety, not line the pockets of corporations. (16/ ) — PolitiTweet.org

Finally, I learned that I have more to learn. I’ll continue to engage these organizations, try to see more facilities, ask more questions, and push for better solutions. Everyone I encountered at the border deserves nothing less than Congress’ full attention on this. (18/18) — PolitiTweet.org
