Congress MUST Ensure Detained Children Receive Medical Attention “We are asking elected officials to intervene immediately to ensure that children showing clear medical warning signs receive timely evaluation by licensed pediatric providers.” Quote from @dr.ashmarie (Instagram) Note: the letter in standard text is at the end of the slides. Liam Rojas is in critical need of proper medical treatment, according to the many pediatricians who’ve signed this letter. His story is making headlines due to the circumstances surrounding his detention. I am sure he is not the only child in the Dilley, TX detention center in need of evaluation and likely treatment. I ask you to use your power to force the center to allow physicians entrance to evaluate the children, and to remove children in need of inpatient care.
