We've all seen the pictures of the awful conditions in CBP custody. I’ve seen them first-hand. I wanted to create a multi-agency migrant processing center to reduce overcrowding and speed processing. This should be a nonpartisan no-brainer. Graham didn't allow it. — PolitiTweet.org

If “the cruelty is the point” of the Trump administration’s immigration policies, allowing for the indefinite detention of children would be its posterchild. I wanted to introduce an amendment stripping indefinite detention from the Graham bill. Graham didn't allow it. — PolitiTweet.org

And all this for a bill that will NEVER BECOME LAW. We all agree we need a secure border. We all agree migrants must be treated humanely. Dems stand ready to work with Rs in good faith, like I did as chairman in 2013. Today’s partisan fiasco did nothing to solve these issues. — PolitiTweet.org
