U.S. Representative Gabe Vasquez (D-NM) said that the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement facility in Otero County, New Mexico is "bursting at the seams" and that conditions are below-par.
During the oversight visit Vasquez said he also noted that the vast majority of detainees had no criminal charges. "What we saw at this facility today is that more than 80 percent of the detainees here have no criminal convictions, no pending criminal charges," Vasquez said after the visit, according to Border Report. "We also saw non-working phones, non-working toilets."
