The death toll amassed by ICE is unacceptable and has proven that they can not be trusted to care for immigrants in their custody.

We're seeing the pandemic is playing a role -- but also the conditions of detention, and what it does both to your mental health and the really poor medical care that exists inside, as we're looking at this death toll going up, what it tells us is... it's a system that shouldn't exist. People should be with their loved ones, with their families, being able to social distance and quarantine at home going through their immigration proceedings.
