A new report from New Jersey health inspectors finds bad employee hygiene, unclean surfaces and poor food storage at the ICE jail known as Delaney Hall in Newark, New Jersey. The report is based on an inspection of Delaney Hall last month, when inspectors were only given access to food service areas. Immigrants detained at Delaney Hall have launched a hunger and labor strike to protest inhumane conditions and demand their release, while protesters gathered outside in support. Clashes have repeatedly broken out between demonstrators and ICE agents.
On Monday, educator and YouTube star Ms. Rachel paid a visit to the children of parents detained at Delaney Hall. On Wednesday, Ms. Rachel delivered over 500 packets of letters and pictures from immigrants detained at the ICE jail in Dilley, Texas, to congressmembers, as well as a letter from herself urging Congress to end family detention and separation. This is Ms. Rachel.
Ms. Rachel: “I wanted to let you know that I’m at the Capitol in Washington, D.C., and I have your words right here, and your letters, and I’m delivering them to members of Congress, because they need to hear your voices. Your voices are so valuable. You have human rights, and your rights should never be violated. And no child should ever be in detention, and we need to end family detention. And I’m sending you so much love, and I’m always going to stand with you.”
