A father broke into tears when @timkaine and I asked him the question. All he wanted to do was to come to this country. Because of the violence in Guatemala, the life of his 7-year-old daughter was threatened. Why would we send him back to a place like that? — PolitiTweet.org

When we got to the facilities, I asked the migrants a question; what do you want for yourself here in this country? They wanted a better future for their children, to be able to attend school, to be reunited with their families. They didn’t want to live under threat of violence. — PolitiTweet.org

There are alternatives to detaining people in facilities that lead to overcrowding. A lot of these facilities are run by for profit companies. Do you think they want to move these people as fast as possible? We are paying these companies $700-800 per person. You do the math. — PolitiTweet.org
