Senate Investigations Find Medical Neglect and Other Human Rights Violations in Immigration Detention Centers

Jon Ossoff (D–Ga.) has found more than 80 cases of medical neglect and inadequate food and water in immigration detention centers across the country, the Associated Press reports. Detainees have been denied insulin and other needed medications; one went days without treatment after suffering a heart attack.
