Today, after months of requests, I toured the Broadview ICE Processing Facility. I want to share what I saw.
The facility has no food vendor, no medical care, and detainees have to use toilets in the middle of shared cells. These are in no way suitable conditions to be holding anyone — period.

A family friend was telling us about what her husband shared about his experience in Broadview before he was deported back to Mexico. She's been sharing to friends and family because she's just in disbelief & horror what her husband told her. She wasn't able to talk to him until he was in Mexico.

My neighborhood has less lights and decorations than years before, the mood is just not the same.
It’s not just families going out door to door it’s also, families not wanting to have people show up at their door.

That Rob Schneider comment should segway into a great opportunity to highlight the history of children’s #hospitals and how they played a pivotal role in medical innovations (ie. Iron Lung) and children’s life expectancy. Just sayin. #histmed

This is a bigger disaster than I think most are realizing. 1500 people have been displaced by the flooding with an exceptionally complicated response and recovery.
