End inhumane detention of migrants, respect human rights

To: Sen. Baldwin, Sen. Johnson, Rep. Steil

From: A constituent in Milton, WI

July 18

The existence of concentration camps on American soil is a blatant violation of human rights and a stain on our nation's values. The horrific conditions reported at the Florida facility, where migrants are caged in overcrowded tents with inadequate access to basic necessities like food, sanitation, and legal counsel, are unconscionable. This egregious treatment of human beings simply for seeking a better life goes against the principles of justice and human dignity our country was founded upon. Such inhumane practices cannot be tolerated in a free and democratic society. We must demand accountability and immediate action to shut down these camps and treat all individuals, regardless of immigration status, with the respect and dignity they deserve as fellow human beings. Concentration camps have no place in America - a nation built by immigrants seeking freedom and opportunity. We must urge our elected leaders to uphold our moral and legal obligations by ending these human rights abuses and pursuing comprehensive immigration reform that addresses the root issues through ethical and humane policies.
