Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Joaquin Castro were among the lawmakers who on Monday observed the horrifying conditions in Texas Border Patrol facilities, where some migrant women said they have been forced to drink out of the toilet
Forcing migrants to drink from toilets was only one element of the abuse. Castro described the conditions in detail in a series of tweets:
“At the El Paso Border Patrol Station #1, women from Cuba, some grandmothers, crammed into a prison-like cell with one toilet, but no running water to drink from or wash their hands with. Concrete floors, cinder-block walls, steel toilets. Many said they had not bathed for 15 days. Some had been separated from children, some had been held for more than 50 days. Several complained they had not received their medications, including one for epilepsy.
