Dear Senator/Representative -

ICE is starting a new surge. I want you and your staffers visit every facility rented or use by ICE, including the temporary spaces that they occupy during this surge. I need you gearing up for oversight and ready to get loud and public.

At the May 5 Border Security Expo in Phoenix, Tom Homan said, "You will see more ICE agents than you've ever seen before, so congratulations."

I have seen what happens during those surges - massive human rights abuses. We have seen people denied access to phones, lawyers, food, and water. I have seen ICE using office bathrooms as temporary detention facilities, forcing a dozen people to sleep in close quarters on tile floors. During the Minnesota surge, they released people from detention miles from their homes, in the middle of the night in the freezing cold with no phone, no ability to call anyone, no jacket, and no shoes.

What are we going to see this time? Will we have people being released in 100 degree heat, miles from home, with no shoes? Will we see refugees and documented asylum seekers again held incommunicado for weeks despite being legally in this country?

DHS is gearing up for more abuses. They have not been held accountable for their past abuses. What will you do to hold DHS accountable?
