Quiver AI Summary
Representatives Debbie Wasserman Schultz and Jeff Merkley, along with 63 other lawmakers, have expressed significant concerns regarding the newly approved “Alligator Alcatraz” immigration detention facility in Florida, highlighting that it may threaten human rights and environmental health. They urge the Department of Homeland Security to provide extensive information about the detention plan.
The lawmakers cited ongoing legal disputes, including a federal injunction halting construction, following objections from tribal nations and environmentalists. They emphasize the need for transparency on operational standards, access to medical care, and the facility's potential environmental impact, as well as the status of detainees.
"The facility could create an unaccountable state-run immigration system," they warned, urging a swift response from DHS to mitigate risks associated with its operation, including due process challenges and environmental degradation. The lawmakers have set a deadline for DHS to address these issues by September 3, 2025.
