Enable senators to oversee ICE

As elected representatives entrusted with oversight responsibilities, we firmly believe transparency and accountability are essential for upholding the integrity of our nation's immigration system. Recent reports of overcrowded and inhumane conditions at Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) facilities across the country are deeply concerning. We urge you to grant members of Congress immediate access to inspect ICE offices and holding areas nationwide. The American people deserve assurance that individuals in federal custody are being treated with dignity and respect for their basic human rights. Denying congressional visits only fuels suspicion of potential misconduct. Openness and cooperation from ICE will foster greater public trust in the lawful enforcement of our immigration policies. We call upon you to uphold our constitutional authority to conduct proper oversight without further obstruction.
