Colorado Congressman Jason Crow, alarmed at the transfers he observed in and out of the ICE detention center in Aurora in the middle of the pandemic wrote, along with other Members of Congress, to ICE to request, among other things, that they halt transfers and that they parole and release all non- violent vulnerable detainees immediately and review all non-violent detainees for parole.
The May 14 response from ICE was vague, non-specific and for all intents and purposes ignored even responding to the Members of Congress’s requests. ICE continues to act with impunity emboldened by Steven Miller and this Administration and Republican Senate.
