@reveal @aurabogado In a follow up to her story, here's a video from @aurabogado explaining these off-book secret facilities holding unaccompanied minors, and why they're so hard to identify.

@reveal @aurabogado The Chairman of the Senate Finance Committee, @ChuckGrassley and its ranking member, @RonWyden (one of mine!) sent this letter to the Admin for Children and Families, under ORR, asking them ALLLLL about the goings on at various shelters ORR contracts out.

@reveal @aurabogado @ChuckGrassley @RonWyden In their (10 page!) letter, they cited @aurabogado's work, and asked some very important questions about the secret facilities:
@reveal @aurabogado @ChuckGrassley @RonWyden @ImmJusticeNOW @ifindkarma @axidentaliberal @jomareewade @B52Malmet @moved2italy @lfkraus @Norberta36 @RepJayapal @DebbieDoesTwitt But the two Senators also bring facilities like Southwest Key, ground zero for some of the most recent sexual and physical abuse scandals, to task like woah. Plus they bring up reporting about the Cococabana Travel company. And they wanna know what ORR is doing about it.

The Senators want answers to their questions by 5/31, or want to know why.

Big takeaway from the *letter* is this: the Senators relied HEAVILY on reporting from @reveal, @nytimes, @washingtonpost, etc.

Journalism matters.
