CORRECT THE RECORD: Sanctuary politicians are spreading categorically FALSE smears about ICE’s Delaney Hall facility in New Jersey.

Here are some of the most EGREGIOUS examples of falsehoods being told about the facility: Image
CLAIM: There is a lack of medical care for illegal aliens detained at Delaney.

FACT: It is a longstanding practice to provide comprehensive medical care from the moment an alien enters ICE custody. This includes medical, dental, and mental health services as available, and access to medical appointments and 24-hour emergency care. For many illegal aliens, this is the BEST healthcare they have received their entire lives.
CLAIM: There is an ongoing hunger strike among the inmates at Delaney.

FACT: There is NO hunger strike at Delaney Hall. All detainees are provided with 3 meals a day. Meals are certified by dietitians.

Today, some Democrats in Congress are planning to bring illegal aliens as guests to the State of the Union. Once again, they are putting illegal aliens above the safety of American citizens.

Yesterday alone our officers arrested pedophiles, rapists, and violent criminals from our communities. President Trump and Secretary Noem have made it abundantly clear: if you come to our country illegally and break our laws, we will find you, we will arrest you, and you will NEVER return.

Arrests include:
Isidro Arcenio Alvarado, a criminal illegal alien from El Salvador, convicted for naturalization fraud in the Eastern District of North Carolina. Image
Omar Gomez-Hinojosa, a criminal illegal alien from Mexico, convicted for assault in Seattle, Washington. Image
