The Trump administration is facing growing complaints from migrants about severe overcrowding, meager food and other hardships at border holding centers, with some people at an encampment in El Paso being forced to sleep on the bare ground during dust storms.
The Border Network for Human Rights issued a report Friday based on dozens of testimonials of immigrants over the past month and a half, providing a snapshot of cramped conditions and prolonged stays in detention amid a record surge of migrant families coming into the U.S. from Central America.
The report comes a day after an advocate described finding a teenage mother cradling a premature baby inside a Border Patrol processing center in Texas. The advocate said the baby should have been in a hospital, not a facility where adults are kept in large fenced-in sections that critics describe as cages.
The state of human rights in the U.S.-Mexico borderlands is grave and is only getting worse, the immigrant rights group said in its report. People are dying because of what is happening.

They’re dying because they are invading a country that REALLY doesn’t want them.
Yep. I guess they were staying at 4 star hotels on the way up from Central America. I want to see a group that talks about Americans human rights for once!
They were told over and over and over not to come here for months.....I don’t care what happens to them or what their complaints are. They chose to get here and they are certainly free to return to their home country. I have zero sympathy for them. They need to leave this country.
No...it’s not what they wanted when they wanted it here....these same people will take to the streets and we’ll see them protesting. They need to leave.
They should be going too the Mexican holding stations anyway.
The whiners can take their behinds back to their country!
I’m sure the story is a fabrication. Being in US Customs custody is like a trip to Disneyland for these trespassers. 0bama was the one who made widespread use if the “cages”.
Thanks for the link to the segment. I don’t watch Fox News, or any TV news programs, so this was interesting to see. I was a Correctional Officer, and Sergeant in NY State’s prison system. Spent 25 years working in maximum and medium security facilities, mostly in central NY State...between Auburn, and Utica. I retired in 2003, and there was no programs like this for convicts back then. There were law libraries, and inmate law clerks to help convicts seeking legal assistance, but the only lawyers that showed up at the prisons, were those already representing prisoners. In all the years I worked in the system, I only came across one male inmate who was getting hormone shots, and he had breasts. Sure there were homos, and some of them attempted to appear more feminine, like using red Kool Aid powder to color their lips, but they weren’t full-blown transgenders. It wasn’t encouraged. However, I’m sure with the new fad of individuals recognizing as transgenders, that more have popped up in NY’s prison system. Why not? Nothing is being done to discourage it. And it won’t end anytime soon, especially if the government, Federal and State, continue to recognize it as something natural. And with the programs of this type being offered to transgender illegal aliens, I can see convicted felons demanding the same thing. They are already catered to, and it wouldn’t surprise me if Andrew Cuomo ordered NY’s prisons to start offering these kind of services. Homosexual activity has always been forbidden in the prison system. If caught, it results in a write-up, and disciplinary action, but if things continue to go as they are, that rule could be thrown out too. It sure makes me glad I retired when I did.
I like your lyrics :)
Fake news to the left of me, fake news to the right . . .
Stuck in the middle (on FR) with you :)
What would any body, especially a PROG/LIB/DEM/SOCIALIST/COMMIE pro illegal alien committee expect a bunch of lying, thieving, murdering, drug dealing, slave selling, diseased, lowlife, pedophile, illegal wetback greasers to say.
That the accommodations are great, I DON’T THINK SO!
Arrogant beggars. Kick the butts out.
Ma Deuce, land mines, claymores, flame throwers.
I think it should all be in the inventory.
And USED FREQUENTLY.
The clowns and jokers just keep churning it out though, don’t they.
I finally looked her up; she’s Korean, not Japanese.
The Koreans don’t like the Japs, for obvious reasons.
someone already corrected me.
Point is the same though. Boo hoo.
Too many bean farts????????????
They’re welcome to go home and never darken our border again.
In fact we should help them do just that....
Gee its so much better back home in your own country...
Youre free to go anytime...
We’re not stopping you...
GOOD!
Get the message back home and and warn them not to come because of that.
