We are receiving reports that conditions have rapidly deteriorated in the Lasalle & Jackson Parish Family Jails after Hurricane Laura. Families are trapped in flooded cells with no electricity or ventilation — prison officials are saying this could last for two weeks. THREAD.
Some of the reports have stated that there is sewage in the flood water that is up to people’s ankles. Without ventilation, it is oppressively hot in these cells, and it is putting people at risk of contracting COVID-19 or getting heatstroke. 2/
These conditions are deplorable. The fact that ICE has let things get this bad shows that they do not care about the wellbeing of families in their care. We are calling for these camps to be closed and the families to be freed so they can be safe. #FreeTheFamilies. 3/
Lives are on the line and we need action now. Call ICE and tell them to #FreeTheFamilies together NOW.
