PHOENIX - Phoenix Mayor Kate Gallego has released a letter she sent to Acting Homeland Security Secretary Chad Wolf amid reports of private hotels in Phoenix being used to detain migrant children. Hotels in Arizona, Texas used to house migrant children

On July 22, the Associated Press reported on how the Trump administration is detaining immigrant children as young as 1 in hotels, sometimes for weeks, before deporting them to their home countries.

According to the report, records show a private contractor for U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement took children to Hampton Inn & Suites locations in Phoenix, El Paso, Texas and McAllen, Texas. The children were typically detained for several days, and the hotels have been used nearly 200 times.

Hampton Inn is kind of upscale. Probably the nicest place those kids ever lived. I’m surprised they didn’t go more for Motel 6 or Knight’s Inn.

Let’s see; air conditioning, indoor plumbing, hot baths with soap etc.

How bad can it be?

[Michael.SF.]

Ok, OK, you win. We’ll put ‘em back in the cages.

[ConservativeMind]

It should be 0bama’s cages, which were fine.

[Michael.SF.]

As part of the negotiation process, conceptual plans have been drawn up to make the children feel more at home in their surroindings:

[Bonemaker]

I've got a "probe" for you mayor...the Stick of Truth Probe!

[Boogieman]

We could put them up at the Four Seasons and the rats would still whine about it.

[cnsmom]

Don’t forget the free breakfast buffet.

[ExGeeEye]

Unpossible. Evrywon nose brown children are put in chain link cages.

[dljordan]

How about we just sell them to the Arabs? It’s a win-win. :)

[dljordan]

LOL!

[Lumper20]

Like the Profile. I do not understand people who vote liberal types plus 3rd world types into our Congress or local Gov,s.

[FormerFRLurker]

Maybe Hampton greased a few palms.

[pfflier]

Put ‘em in barracks like we do with our own kids when they join the military.

[Jan_Sobieski]

Does Democrat Phoenix Mayor Kate Gallego want to put the children back into President Obama’s cages?
