Democratic Congressmember Joaquin Castro met with 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos and his father at the Dilley detention center in Texas on Wednesday. Liam was detained with his father in Minnesota after the boy came home from preschool last week. Images of Liam went viral after he was picked up by federal agents while still wearing his Spider-Man backpack and a blue hat with bunny ears. Congressmember Castro spoke after the meeting.

Rep. Joaquin Castro: “His dad said that he hasn’t been himself, that he’s been sleeping a lot, because he’s been depressed and sad, you know. And so, Liam actually was not awake during our visit. He was sleeping. … A lot of parents there who talked about their kids experiencing deep depression and anxiety.”

Eighty members of Congress, led by Democratic Representative Greg Casar and Democratic Senator Elizabeth Warren, are demanding that Any Lucía López Belloza be allowed to return to the U.S., after the Trump administration admitted that she was mistakenly deported to Honduras. López Belloza, a student at Babson College, was detained and deported while traveling home to Austin to visit her family for Thanksgiving.

Meanwhile, a federal judge ruled Monday that DHS can continue to insist that lawmakers provide a week’s notice before visiting immigration detention facilities. Last week, Democratic Senator Cory Booker introduced a bill to end the use of private, for-profit detention facilities to jail immigrants. We’ll speak with New Jersey Congressmember LaMonica McIver later in the broadcast.
