Guardian: ICE Hires Private Security Company Accused of Torture to Help Track Down Undocumented Children

The Guardian reports ICE has hired a private security company accused of torture, forced disappearances and child abuse to help track down undocumented immigrant children who came to the United States alone. MVM is a security contractor based in Ashburn, Virginia, that abducted and transported immigrant children under the Trump administration’s first-term family separation policy. The company has been at the center of legal turmoil over reports of child abuse, including detaining children in a vacant office building in Phoenix, Arizona, for weeks in 2018.

This video among other things points out that immigrants fuel economic growth, and create jobs. Immigrants are also less likely to commit crime than American citizens. Preventing immigration is cruel, and it shoots your country in the foot.

States have no right to coerce those that aren’t on the path to citizenship and gaining voting rights in cruel deportations

20 years ago, in spring of 2006, hundreds of thousands joined in #immigrant rights protests against a bill criminalizing the #undocumented. They peaked on #ThisDayInHistory with events in over 100 cities across the US. The bill failed in the Senate but the issue remains. #FuckICE
